Are We Almost There?
Source Institutions
In this mathematics activity, learners use a map to determine the coordinates of and distance between two locations--both by road and "as the crow flies".

How Long Can You Hold Your Breath?
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 142 of the PDF), learners will compare breathing rates before and after hyperventilation to explore how reduced carbon dioxide levels in the blood lower the need to breathe.

¡Ventanas de Burbujas!
Source Institutions
En esta actividad sobre la exploración e investigación, los aprendices harán ventanas de burbujas.

Pitch, Roll and Yaw: The Three Axes of Rotation
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 87 of the PDF), learners move their bodies to better understand the three axes of rotation: pitch, roll and yaw.
Flesh Out a Fossil
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover how artists start with a skeleton and turn it into a realistic drawing of a dinosaur.

Convenient Carrier
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners invent a convenient way for someone using crutches or a wheelchair to carry small personal items.

Making Recycled Paper
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 11 of the PDF, learners follow simple steps to recycle old newspaper into new paper.

Zoom-A-Rang
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners design and build a Zoom-a-rang using everyday materials. Experiment with different materials and Zoom-a-rang designs to see how they fly.

Bone Fractures
Source Institutions
Most people break at least two bones in their lifetime. In this activity, learners will use celery stalks to model the many ways that bones can fracture.

How Animals Stay Warm
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, learners explore how blubber protects animals from the cold by making a "blubber mitt." Using cooking shortening, two zip-top sandwich bags, and duct tape, learners simulate bl

Hover Cup
Source Institutions
Is this activity concentrating on physical science, learners build their very own miniature hovercraft out of a paper cup. Using it, they can explore the concepts of friction and force.

Monster Evolution
Source Institutions
In this online activity, learners create monsters and see how they survived when released into the wild.

Another Bright Idea!
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 5 of the PDF, learners use their knowledge of energy and batteries to create homemade flashlights.
Build a Super Structure
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.

Urine the Know
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 5 of the PDF, learners compare water with artificial urine to see how urinalysis works. Learners use urinalysis test strips to test for glucose and protein in the fake urine.
Why Are Two Eyes Better Than One?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how their depth perception would be affected if they only had one eye. Learners work in pairs and attempt to drop a penny in a cup with one eye covered.

The Gas You Pass
Source Institutions
Although we may not admit it, all humans fart or pass some gas. In this activity, learners make their own model to mimic food passing through intestines and discover what releases gas.
