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 rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this activity, learners investigate color vision as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

In this art meets science activity, learners pack silver, ball-shaped ornaments in a single layer in a box to create an array of spherical reflectors.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and experiment with different materials to create bug hats.

In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

In this simple chemistry activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Colorblind Dogs) about acids and bases, learners will mix a baking soda and water solution and use it to paint a message on a

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

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners explore how and why fossils form. First, learners are introduced to dinosaur fossils by reading the book "Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones" by Byron Barton.

In this fun snack and craft activity, young learners make "Ants on a Log" and their own model of an insect. The purpose is to learn the three main insect body parts—head, thorax and abdomen.

Learners observe different light sources, outdoors and indoors, using prism glasses (diffraction glasses) and color filters.

In this activity on page 8 of the PDF, learners make a slimy substance very similar to mucus, and sprinkle it with glitter to imitate the way that allergens are trapped.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this activity, learners draw natural objects to explore the details, differences, and similarities of natural objects.

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this STEAM activity, learners create a "pixel tube" to explore reflections of light and color mixing.

In order to examine the random nature of mutations and natural selection, learners "breed" clutches of Egyptian Origami Birds (Avis papyrus) using random number generators (dice and coins) to mutate s

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing tube zithers, stringed instruments from Southeast Asia and the South Pacific.
