In this activity, learners discover how geologists use stratigraphy, the study of layered rock, to understand the sequence of geological events.

In this activity (on page 1 of the PDF), learners make a "mini-globe" to investigate the causes of day and night on our planet.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

In this lesson, learners develop a robot arm using common materials. Learners explore design, construction, and teamwork, as well as materials selection and use.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this activity about engineering, nutrition, and physical activity, learners design and build a healthy bone model of a space explorer which is strong enough to withstand increasing amounts of weigh

In this quick activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Lava Flow Activity), learners will model how large depressions near the top of a volcano are formed by using an inflating and deflating balloon submerg

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Garbology Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into design optimization using recycled materials.

In this activity, learners work in NASA teams to build balloon-powered rockets using identical parts and compete to launch the greatest number of paper clips to "space" (the ceiling).

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites) is a full inquiry investigation into how a kite’s shape affects its performance.

In this activity, learners create a soil and water model of a single-cell life environment and study living microorganisms.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

In this activity, learners discover the difficulty of ocean exploration by human beings as they investigate water pressure.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to conduct a series of experiments using a balloon, drinking straw, and paper.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Luge) is a full inquiry-based challenge related to motion and design optimization.

In this activity (on page 6 of the PDF), learners plot the path of the sun's apparent movement across the sky on two days, with the second day occurring two or three months after the first.
