In this activity, learners build a game that tests their steadiness. Learners construct the game board by setting up an electrical circuit and a wand.

Players take turns adding shapes made of three squares to a grid. They try to fit their shapes on the grid in a way that blocks the other player.

In this activity, learners will use Google Sky to observe features of the night sky and share their observations.

In this activity, learners develop an understanding of cylinders and volume as they compare two sizes of popcorn buckets.

In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

This great "re-use it" activity will demonstrate how to transform a greeting card into a box. Once constructed, the box can have many uses like holding special notes or keepsakes.

As learners play this strategy game, they develop understanding of squares, area, and perimeter. On each turn, a player draws a line between two dots next to each other on the grid.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, learners use number sense and mental math strategies to estimate the price of a sign.

In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this activity, learners build a machine made of craft sticks to multiply the levering motion of their hands and create a device that bends and extends.

In this design challenge, learners will practice empathy and design thinking skills by creating an invention of the future.

In this activity, learners will conduct an open-ended survey, and then organize and analyze results. What languages does everyone speak? What’s the most common? the least common?

In this activity, learners explore the economics of coal mining as you they use fake money to purchase mining tools, attempt to carefully mine their cookies, sell their chocolate chip ore, and try to

In this activity, learners build an electric two-paddle boat using paint paddles, plastic knives, and empty water bottles.

In this game, learners build up six stacks of cards in the middle of the table, face up, in order from 1 at the bottom to 20 on the top. The first player to get rid of all his cards is the winner.

This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

This activity (on page 2) explores how sensing is part of robotics. Learners try tying their shoes with different constraints.

In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.
