In this math lesson, learners count and compare amounts of money less than or equal to one dollar.

Rocks are made of minerals, and minerals often have crystal shapes. In this fun activity about geometry in nature, learners create their own crystal shapes out of paper.

In this activity, learners will use clear nail polish and the power of chemistry to create paper with a rainbow sheen.

This is a simple and fun activity for learners to explore water and colors.

In this activity, learners build a carousel toy that spins when pushed down.

In this activity, learners complete a series of drawing activities to explore scale and powers of 10. Learners first trace each other on 1-meter-square pieces of paper.

In this math activity, learners use a variety of sensory modalities to gain experiences with identifying, describing and creating repeating patterns.

This design challenge is an open-ended exploration of linkages, a group of parts connected by hinges, and the types of motion they can create.

Learners explore three-dimensional geometric frames including cubes and tetrahedrons, as they create bubble wands with pipe cleaners and drinking straws.

In this activity, learners discover that nanoparticles of gold can appear red, orange or even blue. They learn that a material can act differently when it’s nanometer-sized.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

Create 3D glasses and use them to explore color, light and optics. Fool your brain into 'seeing' three dimensions on a flat surface!

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners follow a recipe to make a dough similar to the clay artists use to make sculptures.

In this activity on page 11 of the PDF, learners use candle wax to make "invisible" designs that are revealed with watercolor paints.

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

Learners use shop tools and various materials to construct a magnetic spinner and a compass.

In this game, learners create flash cards with an image on one side (of an animal, for example) and the sound that animal makes on the other.

In this activity, learners cut out a fish and then "paint" it using universal indicator and acids and bases.
