Latent Prints
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners examine fingerprints. Learners leave a hidden print on a surface and then make their own print detecting powder from graphite (found in pencils).

Interactive Pencil Drawings: Drawings That Tell a Story!
Source Institutions
Margaret Pezalla-Granlund, a Minnesota artist, came up with this really fun and surprising activity using graphite from a pencil, connected with a Pico Cricket to tell a story: "The first time I saw s

Forms of Carbon
Source Institutions
In this activity, educators can demonstrate how the nanoscale arrangement of atoms dramatically impacts a material’s macroscale behavior.

Got Gas?
Source Institutions
Create gas with a glass of water, some wire, conductors and a battery! You will be separating water (H2O) into oxygen and hydrogen.

Dusting For Fingerprints
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners become detectives and use chemistry to investigate fingerprints.

Balloon Nanotubes Tabletop
Source Institutions
This activity introduces learners to the structure and properties of carbon nanotubes.

Bridge Building
Source Institutions
This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Hockey Sticks Activity) about how the arrangement of carbon atoms determines carbon's different properties.

Exploring Materials: Graphene
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the properties of graphene and graphite.

Exploring Materials: Graphene
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.
