In this experiment, learners use JOY liquid detergent and glycerin to make the largest bubble they can that lasts 15 seconds.

In this activity, participants will learn about how gigantic clouds of gas and dust in space, called nebulas, are formed. They'll create their own colorful model nebula using paint and a spinner.

In this activity, learners use binoculars (or a telescope) to identify and track sunspots. If using binoculars, learners need a pair that can be secured on a tripod.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this outdoor activity, learners release a portion of a lawn from human control—no mowing, no watering, no weeding, no pest control—and then investigate the changes that result over several weeks.

In this outdoor activity, learners cut through and investigate rotten logs and then make log-profile puzzles for each other.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

A magic lantern is a light that projects an image onto a screen.

In this activity, participants will learn how stars form from the dust and gas that exists in space clumping together.

The Butterflies in Space Teacher's Guide uses "life in space" to encourage learners to conduct their own open-ended scientific investigations.

In this activity, learners create a marble maze that contains sensors. As a metal marble triggers the sensors, the Pico Cricket turns on lights or spins motors.

In this highly physical outdoor activity, learners construct and compare experimental trail sections to select the best trail-construction technique for their site.

This activity models the mass coral spawning event that takes place at Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary every August.

In this outdoor activity, learners turn the fun of feeding wild birds into an investigation of bird behavior.

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

In this activity/demo, learners examine a synthetic gecko tape with micron sized hairs that mimics the behavior of the gecko foot.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.

In this activity, learners review the history of gumball machines and explore potential and kinetic energy, while working in teams to build a gumball slide.

This activity introduces learners to wolf behavior and communication.
