In this activity, learners explore static electricity and electrical charges while experimenting with an inflated balloon, unflavored gelatin powder, and a wool sweater.

This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.

In this activity, learners will explore paleontology and archaeology. They will learn about technique as they excavate raisins and chocolate chips from cookies.

In this activity, learners mix water, cooking oil, and liquid food coloring to create beautiful colored designs in a cup. Use this activity to explore liquid density and solubility.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners use the numbers one through six to solve a puzzle.

Create gas with a glass of water, some wire, conductors and a battery! You will be separating water (H2O) into oxygen and hydrogen.

In this group or individual activity, learners are encouraged to watch birds near home or school—possibly where birds are nesting in a tree, pecking in a park, feeding from a feeder, or flying through

In this activity, "space cadets" (learners) use writing and sequencing skills in addition to directional words/ordered pairs to guide Buzz Lightyear (from the movie "Toy Story") through a grid to reac

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners will explore the physics of air by making a snake kite.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how engineering solved the problem of human/computer interface.

In this activity, learners create a tiny electric, motorized dancer. Learners use the interactions of magnetism and electric current to make a wire spin, while displaying the Lorentz Force in action.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to look over ledges or around corners.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

In this activity, learners explore how hot and cold water move. Learners observe that temperature and density affect how liquids rise and fall.

In this engineering activity, learners design parachutes to give toy figures safe landings. This activity is great for practicing an important STEM skill--changing only one variable at a time.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing an instrument using some metal pipes, rubber bands, and a baseboard.

In this activity, learners play a game from India similar to Tic-Tac-Toe. Players take turns placing coins on the game board and sliding the coins along the spaces.

In this activity, learners explore an everyday situation, where either of two or more buttons can ring a buzzer.

Using household materials, learners can make white gooey globs from clear solutions. Alum, dissolved in water, reacts with the hydroxide in ammonia to create aluminum hydroxide.
