Population Game
Source Institutions
In this outdoor game, learners simulate a herd of deer trying to survive in an area called the "home range." Learners explore the concept of "carrying capacity"—what size population of an organism can

How to Train Your Robot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that training a robot can be hard work! Learners investigate how robots complete a task by following a list of sequential instructions.

Traits Bingo
Source Institutions
In this game, learners cross off or color bingo squares in response to questions about their traits.

Cylinders and Scale
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.

A Universe Without Supernovae
Source Institutions
This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity illustrates the value of supernovae in the universe.

Moving Model Glacier
Source Institutions
In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.

What Do Birds Do?
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

Night Eyes
Source Institutions
In this outdoor, night-time activity, learners discover how to spot eye-shine (reflection of light from an animal's eyes) by using a flashlight to play a simulation game.

Design a Submarine
Source Institutions
Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

Touch Down
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.

Reflections
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, Dracula has a hole in his house and learners help solve the problem by using a mirror and protractor to reflect incoming light out of his house.

¡Helados!
Source Institutions
En esta tira cómica, Mateo y Cientina emplean su conocimiento de la química y las medidas para esta actividad deliciosa - ¡hacer helado!

Michelle O (formerly Vanna)
Source Institutions
We don't normally view people upside down and so our brains aren't accustomed to it.

Static Water
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will use static elecricity to bend a stream of water without touching it. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

Radiohead
Source Institutions
When you teeth clatter, they make quite the racket disproportionately to how much they actually sound to someone else.

Ramp it Up
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

Shrinking Polymers
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that some plastics will shrink when you get them hot. Learners bake polystyrene in a regular oven and discover what happens.

Can Energy be Created or Destroyed?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.

Eyedropper Hydrometer: Buoy your understanding of density
Source Institutions
Build a hydrometer (measures the density of a liquid) using a pipet or eyedropper.

Physics in the Toy Room: Toppling Towers
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners use square blocks to explore how towers fall. Learners attach a piece of string to the side of a block and then construct a tall tower on top of this base block.
