In this activity, learners design a therapeutic agent to image and/or cure various diseases in the respiratory system.

In this activity/demo, learners are introduced to the connection between medieval stained glass artisans and nanotechnology.

In this collaborative storytelling activity, learners and caregivers develop a strong story about science and exploration.

"Nature of Dye" allows participants to create their own dyes and art while exploring how chemicals interact and how these interactions can have real-world applications.

In this activity, learners create a map of a hidden surface using a "sounding stick" -- a technique similar to how underwater maps were once made.

In this activity, learners build handheld rockets and launchers out of PVC pipes and plastic bottles. Use this activity to demonstrate acceleration, air pressure, and Newton's Laws of Motion.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.

This activity models some of the ways natural processes, such as erosion and sediment pollution, affect Earth’s landscape.

Learners compare the properties of two balls that appear identical. One ball bounces, while the other ball "thuds." The “bounce” ball is made of the polymer polybutadiene (-C4H4-).

This activity introduces learners to wolf behavior and communication.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

Play-Doh is conductive! Use the semiconductive qualities of Play-Doh to make your own squeezable instrument. Pico Cricket is required.

"Sublimation Bubbles" allows learners to explore how some solid materials, such as dry ice, can phase change directly from their solid to gaseous form.

"What's in the Water" lets participants use tools to solve the mystery- what chemicals and compounds are in a sample of water?

Learners observe different paper samples under ordinary room light and under a black light to learn some of the chemical differences between different types of paper.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).
