In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.

In this environmental science activity (page 3 of the PDF), leaners will identify and explain the causes of erosion.

In this activity, learners examine body parts (including skin, scales, and skulls) from fish, mammals and reptiles. Questions are provided to help encourage learner investigations.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, a lightbulb is placed in front of a concave mirror. The actual lightbulb is not visible to the viewer, but the viewer can see the mirror image of the lightbulb formed in space.

In this activity, learners investigate the different salinity levels of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Extreme Sounds) is a full inquiry investigation into sound.

In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

In this outdoor, night activity, learners track nocturnal animals' footprints, droppings and other signs of their presence.

In this activity, learners explore how casts of fossilized bones are created and used to learn about dinosaurs. Learners make observations, draw diagrams and share their findings.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Malformed Frogs) is a full inquiry investigation into using indicator species to assess the health of an environment.

In this activity, learners create channel features with flowing water, comparing their observations to real images of Mars and Earth taken by satellites/orbiters.

In this outdoor activity, learners design devices that will catch prey or gather plants.

In this fun optics activity, learners explore principles of light, reflection (mirrors), and perception. Learners work in pairs and sit on opposite sides of a "two-way" mirror.

In this activity, learners create a sealed, mini ecosystem that supplies freshwater shrimp with food, oxygen, and waste processing for at least three months.

In this activity about light and reflection, learners discover that what you see is often affected by what you expect to see.

This activity has learners interacting with live crayfish, but could be adapted for a variety of similar hardy and interesting organisms.

In this activity, learners test to see if carbon dioxide is present in the air we breathe in and out by using a detector made from red cabbage.

In this activity about light and reflection, learners use a special device called a Mirage Maker™ to create an illusion.

In this activity, learners explore deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a nanoscale structure that occurs in nature.
