In this activity, learners will conduct an open-ended survey, and then organize and analyze results. What languages does everyone speak? What’s the most common? the least common?

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.

In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.

In this activity, learners discuss the different salinities of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

In this introductory demonstration and activity, learners are introduced to the concept of density as they explore a rock and a wooden block in water.

Learners will see that changing the shape of an object, like a clay ball, that is more dense than water, can affect whether the object will sink or float.

In this quick activity, learners observe how the added sugar in a can of soda affects its density and thus, its ability to float in water.

In this activity, learners investigate the properties of different types of balls.

In this family or group inquiry activity, learners use their senses to explore a local forest or woodland.

In this demonstration, learners observe as a bottle is placed on a table with wooden hoop balanced on top and a pencil balanced on top of the hoop.

In this activity, learners confront their perceptions of gravity in the solar system.

In this outdoor beach activity, learners use a variety of "beaks" (such as trowels, spoons or sticks) to hunt for organisms that shore birds might eat.

In this simple activity, learners investigate refraction by placing a picture of an arrow behind a glass of water.

This is an activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under Surface Area Activity) about surface area and reactivity.

In this activity, learners make models representing bones on Earth and bones that have been in space. They discover what happens to bones without proper exercise and nutrition.

In this activity (on page 2), pairs of learners create an imaginary crime scene. One person leaves the room while the other person moves a few things around.

This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

In this activity, learners explore how the power of the sun can be harnessed to heat and cool a building.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of PDF SciGirls Activity: Milk Carton Boat), learners will create a blob of stretchable funny putty out of a water, borax, and glue mixture.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will measure the rate at which water streams out of a leaky cup.
