In this outdoor activity, learners find out the color of food that jays prefer and then try to change the birds' preference by altering the taste of the food with salt.

En esta actividad, los aprendices aprenderán que es la cromatografía y cómo usarla para separar diferentes sustancias - en este caso,usarán los colores.

In this activity about magnetism (page 15 of the PDF), learners will explore how opposite and similar magnetic poles affect a swinging (pendulum) magnet.

In this activity, learners investigate sound wave science, in stereo! Learners construct a "stereo" out of a metal coat hanger and piece of string to explore sound vibrations.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.

In this optics activity, learners conduct an experiment to find out why two eyes are better than one!

This activity is designed to let learners measure their reaction time or response time to something they see.

This is a chemistry lab activity about solutions (page 6 of the PDF). Students make a limewater testing solution for carbon dioxide and explore the concepts of solubility and precipitates.

In this activity (9th activity on the page), learners work in pairs to see how their perception of touch differs from reality.

In this activity, learners build bridges using paper and explore how much weight each bridge design can support.

In this activity, learners investigate the touch sensory system and discover how to plan and carry out their own experiments.

In this neuroscience activity (4th activity on the page), learners make their own set of Von Frey hairs to test detection thresholds.

In this genetics activity, learners discover how to extract DNA from green split peas.

In this activity, learners build bridges and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with straws and pins.

This is a chemistry lab activity about solutions (page 7 of the PDF). Learners see firsthand how chemicals in a solution can combine to form an entirely different substance.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of sight and develop and conduct their own experiments.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore how a surprising number of animals use human-made litter, such as cans and crumpled paper, to find food and shelter in their environment.

Learners use chromatography to separate and analyze the mixture of pigments in leaves. Use this activity to discuss photosynthesis as well as why leaves change color in autumn.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.
