In this fun, hands-on autumn activity, learners experiment to discover whether the colored substances in leaves can be separated from the leaves.

In this activity about engineering, nutrition, and physical activity, learners design and build a healthy bone model of a space explorer which is strong enough to withstand increasing amounts of weigh

In this activity, learners test the rate of ripening fruit and vegetables and use a chemical to inhibit the ripening process.

Can gelatin (like Jell-O ®) change the speed of light?

In this activity, learners conduct tests for proteins, glucose, and starch.

In this activity, learners observe what happens when yeast cells are provided with a source of food (sugar). Red cabbage "juice" will serve as an indicator for the presence of carbon dioxide.

In this activity, learners compare and contrast their own skin (including the area covered) with that of an orange.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

In this activity, learners explore trebuchet design. Teams of learners construct trebuchets from everyday materials.

In this open-ended multicultural lab activity, learners investigate the effectiveness of herbal remedies.

In this activity, learners count and measure kidney beans to explore natural selection and variation. Learners measure the length of 50-100 beans.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Self-Assembly Activity) about self-assembly, the ability of molecules to assemble themselves according to certain rules.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.

In this activity, learners create a battery from fruit. This activity helps learners explore electricity, electrochemistry, and series circuits as well as the process of scientific inquiry.

This activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity) is a full inquiry investigation to determine the age of fossils based on where they are discovered.
