In this activity, learners surprisingly pop balloons without touching them using orange peels. This Mr.
The Unpoppable Balloon
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore polymer structure and their ability to reform around objects by attempting to stab a wooden skewer through a balloon without popping it.
Tumble Wing Walkalong Glider
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 2 of the PDF), learners will construct their own walkalong glider. They will explore how air, though invisible, surrounds and affects other objects.
Guar Gum Slime
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a gelatinous slime using guar gum powder and borax. Educators can use this simple activity to introduce learners to colloids.

Cohesion Coin
Source Institutions
In this activity about the property of water (page 6 of the PDF), learners use a coin to demonstrate cohesion between water molecules, exploring the molecular forces that allow water molecules to "
