Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.

In this activity, learners make a model of the solid Earth's layers that's good enough to eat! Learners use tasty foodstuffs to simulate Earth's inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust.

Based of the The Tech Challenge 2015, learners will engage in two mini-design challenges related to seismic engineering.

In this activity, learners design a bungee jump for an egg using nylon stockings.

This activity attempts to clear up the common misconception that deserts are always hot, totally dry, and uninhabitable.

In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.

Have you noticed the plastic rings that are used to hold six-packs of soda? Those rings are great for carrying cans, but they're real trouble when they become trash that animals can get tangled in.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners explore how we see color.

In this activity, learners explore the flexibility of polymer chains by pushing sharpened pencils through a Ziploc bag.

In this activity, learners will explore density and it's relationship with mass.

In this activity, learners will explore how and why weight distribution works.

In this activity, two groups of learners create two separate landform models out of clay (mountains and valleys).

In this hands-on activity, learners investigate the functional design of leaves on a tree.

In this design challenge, learners build a boat that paddles itself using a rubber band as its power source.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

In this activity, learners construct an indoors obstacle course and discover how using an eye patch can help them complete the course in the dark.

En esta actividad, los aprendices leen sobre como Mateo y Cientina conducen una investigación forense para descubrir quien llevó unos dulces.

In this activity, learners will learn about a person they admire (famous, family or otherwise) or even themselves and create a life-sized silhouette.

En esta actividad, los aprendices aprenderán que es la cromatografía y cómo usarla para separar diferentes sustancias - en este caso,usarán los colores.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.
