Changing the Density of a Liquid: Heating and Cooling
Source Institutions
Learners investigate how the temperature of water affects its density.

Frozen Sculptures
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.
Water Motor
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will explore how energy from moving water can be used.

Habitat Web
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the web of connections among living and non-living things.

Exploring Materials: Graphene
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.

Dirty Oil, Oily Dirt
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover how sediment is affected in an oil spill. Learners investigate the differences between heavy and light oil as well as the differences between different sediments.

Bubbularium: See the Colors in Bubbles
Source Institutions
With little more than a flashlight, a straw, and a plastic lid, make an observatory so you can see the amazing colors in bubbles.

Bury Me Not!
Source Institutions
This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs) is a full inquiry investigation into decomposition.

Egg Carton Nursery
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners will make their own flower seed nursery in an egg carton.

Changing the Density of an Object: Adding Material
Source Institutions
Learners see that a can of regular cola sinks while a can of diet cola floats. As a demonstration, bubble wrap is taped to the can of regular cola to make it float.

Rain Forest in Your Room
Source Institutions
This activity (on pages 19-24) introduces learners to the rain forest's layers—emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor—and has learners make paper lianas (vines that live attached to trees) and

Water Ways
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners explore surface tension by adding pennies to cups which are "full" of plain water or soapy water.

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

North American Endangered Amphibians Card Game
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners can play two card games related to endangered species, specifically North American amphibians.

Soapy Boats
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore surface tension, what it is, and how we can change it.

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

The Old White Sheet Trick: Light and Insect Behavior
Source Institutions
In this outdoor, nighttime activity, learners gather around a brightly lit, white surface and study the behavior of nocturnal animals attracted to the light, particularly night fliers.

Push Me a Grape
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners experiment with the attractive and repulsive power of magnets.

I Can't Take the Pressure!
Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

Rip It Up And Start Again - Composting
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will experiment to find how long it takes to compost paper. They will create their own compost container and test different variables.
