In this activity, learners use their imaginations and picture a scene in their heads.

Learners test their "light-smarts" by playing a game called "Light Quest!" The game board represents an atom and each player represents an electron that has been bumped into the atom's outer unstable

In this three-part activity, learners conduct simple experiments to see how light refracts and reflects, and how colors of light affect what we see.

Learners create their own piece of history by decorating, shattering, and piecing together a flowerpot "artifact".

In this experiment, learners work in pairs to create two gloves -- one that contains a layer of shortening (blubber) inside, and one that doesn't.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

Coins are everyday objects which tell a lot about the people who use them.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to build their own compass.

Learners grow sugar crystals (rock candy). They make a hot solution that has an excess of sugar dissolved in it, then as the solution cools, they see sugar crystals form.

In this activity, learners explore mammal locomotion by constructing flipbooks.

Learners make a mobile model of a carbon atom using clay, wire, and pipe cleaners.

In this experiment, pairs of learners explore how cold water affects circulation. The mammalian diving reflex (MDR) slows circulation when the body is exposed to cold water.

Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.
