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

In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process (EDP)—the process engineers use to solve design challenges.

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 data analysis activity, learners quantify the abundance and distribution of sea scallops in and adjacent to the Mid-Atlantic closed areas.

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

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have developed big wheels or Ferris wheels.

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 math lesson, learners make estimates to analyze the number of apples per acre, and visualize the magnitude of one million.

In this data analysis activity, learners use data collected by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to study Chilean sea bass populations.

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

In this nutrition activity (page 26 of PDF), learners consider the nutritional needs of people with specific dietary requirements, such as athletes, persons with diabetes and vegetarians, and create a

In this activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

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

In this activity, learners bake cookies by following different recipes to better understand genetic mutations. Everyone in the group bakes the same type of cookie: chocolate chip.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.
