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.

In this activity, learners explore the relationship between electric charges and magnetic fields.

In this activity, learners build a tiny but powerful flashlight out of simple materials. Use this activity to introduce learners to electrical circuits and conductivity.

In this activity, learners explore how a flashlight works, showing the electric circuit and switch functions of this everyday household item.

In this activity, high voltage is applied across a pickle to emit a yellow glow. This activity should only be conducted by skilled adults and is best suited as a demonstration.

In this activity, learners build simple alarms that they can attach to anything, such as a drawer or doorway. This activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, and currents.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of conducting or insulating electricity.

In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners observe as two parallel, current-carrying wires exert forces on each other.

In this activity, learners model the flow of energy from the sun as it enters a photovoltaic cell, moves along a wire and powers a load.

In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners create a magnetic field that's stronger than the Earth's magnetic field.

In this activity about electricity and magnetism, learners discover how a doorbell works. A coil of wire with current flowing through it forms an electromagnet that acts similar to a bar magnet.

In this activity about chemistry and electricity, learners form a battery by placing their hands onto plates of different metals.

In this activity, learners build an electromagnet using a nail, a cork, a battery, and electrical wire. Use this activity to demonstrate how electric currents produce magnet fields.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.
