This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to organize an interactive model for learning the classification system (taxonomy) of living things.

In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

Learners create a model of a wetland to observe how it absorbs and filters water from the environment.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

In this activity, learners test how cornstarch and glitter in water move when disturbed. Learners compare their observations with videos of Jupiter's and Earth's storm movements.

In this activity, learners build bridges and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with straws and pins.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Luge) is a full inquiry-based challenge related to motion and design optimization.

In this two part activity, learners work in pairs or individually to discover how vectoring the thrust from a jet engine affects movement of an airplane.

In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

Learners model the ocean currents that carry hot water from the tropics to northern latitudes.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

In this activity, learners create 3D geometric shapes using straws and pipe cleaners.

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.
