In this demonstration, learners compare and contrast regular water ice to dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide). Both samples are placed in a solution of acid-base indicator.

In this chemistry challenge, learners combine acids and bases in a universal indicator to create five different colors.

In this activity, learners test exhaled breath for carbon dioxide and learn how to use an indicator as a simple way to measure pH.

In this chemistry activity, learners will test the pH of various foods and household substances using cabbage.

In this experiment, learners test multiple food items to see if they are an acid or base using an indicator solution created with red cabbage.

Learners make kimchee or sauerkraut, which is really just fermented cabbage, in a 2-liter plastic bottle.

In this activity, learners explore acids and bases by preparing six solutions that combine vinegar and ammonia, ranging from acid (all vinegar) to base (all ammonia).

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this activity on page 8 of the PDF (Behind the Scenes with Chemistry), learners make three of Harry Potter's essential school supplies: quills, ink, and color-changing paper.

"What's in the Water" lets participants use tools to solve the mystery- what chemicals and compounds are in a sample of water?

A group of learners simulates the spread of disease by trading slips of paper, one set of which has been treated with a baking soda solution.

In this chemistry activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners make an acid-base indicator using cabbage. Learners then explore how various subtances react with this indicator.
