This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

Learners will do an experiment to determine which type of paper is strongest while focusing on variables and collecting data.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.

The Let's Do Chemistry "Build a Battery" activity lets participants learn how batteries work and how materials behave, change, and interact by building their own simple battery out of metal and felt w

In this activity, learners will experiment to find how long it takes to compost paper. They will create their own compost container and test different variables.

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

In this activity, learners will design a seed and test how it travels. Learners will use the Engineering Design Process to create a seed which can move from place to place.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this outdoor activity, learners release a portion of a lawn from human control—no mowing, no watering, no weeding, no pest control—and then investigate the changes that result over several weeks.

In this two-part activity, learners compare and contrast a variety of life cycles to better understand different organisms and how they develop.
