In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this activity, learners explore what happens when polarized white light passes through a sugar solution.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate whether the temperature of the surrounding water affects the rate at which the colored coating dissolves from an M&M.

In this activity, learners examine baking powder, a combination of three powders: baking soda, cream of tartar, and cornstarch.

In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.

In this nutrition activity, learners explore food labels and consider the nutritional value of foods. Learners also explore units of measurement commonly used on food labels.

In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.

In this engineering activity, learners investigate the differences between the strength of bridges made from flat and round building materials.

In this simulation, learners use M&M™ candy to explore radioactive isotope decay.

In this activity, learners create a gelatinous slime using guar gum powder and borax. Educators can use this simple activity to introduce learners to colloids.

This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Surface Area Activity) about surface area to volume ratio.

In this challenge, learners figure out how to make a juice stain disappear.

In this activity, learners mix several sugar solutions to investigate the property of density. Each sugar solution has a different density and color of the rainbow.

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

Learners carefully look at four known household crystals.

In this activity about food safety and nutrition, learners investigate safe food preparation by making fruit ice cream.

This lesson gives full instructions for making cabbage juice indicator, a procedure sheet for learners to record observations as they use the indicator to test materials, and extension activities to d

Learners design their own experiment to determine which M&M color dissolves the fastest in water.

In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.

In this activity, learners investigate whether having sugar already dissolved in water affects the speed of dissolving and the movement of sugar and color through the water.
