In this activity, learners develop an understanding of cylinders and volume as they compare two sizes of popcorn buckets.

In this activity (Page 30 of PDF), learners investigate the evolution of wheat by conducting sedimentation tests on different flours.

In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

Learners place multiple M&M's in a plate of water to watch what happens as the candies dissolve.

In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.
