Create a chemical reaction that makes cheese! This hands-on activity demonstrates that molecules and atoms are tiny particles that make up everything around us.

Learners observe and conduct experiments demonstrating the different properties of hot and cold materials.

Learners add drops of four liquids (water, alcohol, salt water, and detergent solution) to different surfaces and observe the liquids' behavior.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners will discover that phenolphthalein is a chemical that displays different colors depending on the acidity or basicity of the environment.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), the learner places a golf ball between salt water and colored fresh water. The golf ball is not as dense as the saltwater.

This is an activity about our sense of smell and how it compares to sharks' super noses. Learners will create varying solutions of water and perfume.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

In this activity, learners create a garden in a disposable glove. They learn about the conditions necessary to make the seeds sprout and actively participate in caring for their plants.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate whether the temperature of the surrounding water affects the rate at which the colored coating dissolves from an M&M.

In this health activity (located on page 4 of the PDF), learners will discover the importance of hand washing by observing mold growing on potatoes.

Learners create hard water by mixing Epsom salt and water. Then they compare what happens when soap solution is mixed with hard water and regular water.

Learners observe and record what happens when they manipulate bottles containing a liquid (water or corn syrup) and one or more objects (screw, nail, paper clip).

In this physics activity, learners will explore the concept of buoyancy, especially as it relates to density.

Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

In this hands-on botany activity, learners sprout vegetables in film canisters.

This three-part activity consists of an activity that groups of learners develop themselves, a given procedure, and an optional demonstration.

In this health activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will discover why covering their mouth and nose while sneezing is so important.

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

The "Rocket Reactions" activity is an exciting way to learn about how materials interact, behave, and change.

In this combination chemistry and physics activity, learners explore water absorption in dried beans or peas and learn how this affects their physical properties.
