In this activity about humans and space travel (page 1 of PDF), learners compare and contrast the behavior of a water-filled plastic bag, both outside and inside of a container of water.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

In this activity, learners use their sense of smell to explore the world on the nanoscale.

In this activity, learners model directed evolution by making paper fly. Learners construct and fly paper airplanes.

In this health activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners will explore a unique connection betweeen the bones of the body.

In this activity, learners make scale models of the Sun and Earth out of paper mache.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

In this math lesson, learners estimate distances between landmarks and use a map and scales to determine the actual distances.

In this activity, learners investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.

Learners create an Incan counting device called a quipu (pronounced kee-poo).

In this math lesson (on Page 13), learners predict and simulate the likelihood of an event occurring.

In this chemistry activity, learners perform three chemical reactions in a sealed zip-top bag. Learners will record their observations and classify the changes as chemical or physical.

In this art-related activity, learners make a coin rubbing—a process similar to what archeologists may do with ancient artifacts. This activity can be used in connection with a history or art lesson.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this activity, learners shrink the scale of the vast solar system to the size of their neighborhood.

In this game, learners are stuck in a right turn only world! Learners take turns rolling a die and moving their game pieces along the lines of a grid to get "home," by only making right turns.

In this online activity, learners use a realistic mass and spring laboratory. They hang masses from springs and adjust the spring stiffness and damping.

In this nighttime, outdoor activity, learners keep a record of what they see in the sky by drawing constellations, the Moon, and making note of the weather and conditions each day.

In this four-part activity, learners explore how the body works and the chemistry that happens inside living things.

In this activity, learners investigate visual perception as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.
