In this activity, learners build bridges out of newspaper and tape to explore how structures are designed to bear loads.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will--using nothing more than a coat hanger and some string--explore and understand sound energy and how it moves.

In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

In this activity, learners find as many combinations of a hundred as they can using various puzzle pieces from a hundred square grid paper.

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.

In this activity, learners play a matching game with their families to discover common inherited traits and traditions. Learners distinguish between inherited traits and learned traditions.

In this activity, learners play a game that helps young mathematicians recognize how the numbers 0 through 5 are related. Learners toss five pompoms into circle made out of string on the floor.

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

In this game, learners strategize to win the most cards by building number equations. Learners practice operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) to construct their equations.

In this math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.

In this math activity, learners make and explore patterns using the letters in their names, a grid, and some colors.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a race-car out of a coffee can and rubber band. Demonstrate motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy and friction.

In this math activity, learners sort patterns into similar "families" or groups that have the same pattern, but different symbols.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (second activity on the page).

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.

Learners make slime from white school glue and Borax detergent. The long chain molecules of the white glue become cross-linked by the Borax into a big network.

In this sensory activity, learners enjoy the fun of a snow day any season of the year.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF), learners explore alternative uses of a simple paper cup, dubbed a "mystery item." Learners act as detectives and explore the properties and functions of th
