In this math lesson, learners model exponential decay and exponential growth using M&M's, paper folding, and African rhino population data.

In this (edible) activity, learners balance chemical equations using different kinds and colors of candy that represent different atoms. Learners will work in pairs and explore conservation of atoms.

In this math lesson, learners use slices of bread and geoboards to explore several ways to divide a rectangle in half. Learners also identify equivalent fractions that represent one-half.

In this activity, learners are challenged to eat some candy as a cell would need to as well as to think about some of the problems that arise when a cell ingests food.

This game teaches ratio and proportion by having learners make "salads" that combine three types of beans in different combinations.

Learners explore soybeans, soak them in water to remove their coat, and then split them open to look inside. They also make a musical shaker out of paper cups, a cardboard tube, and soybeans.

In this activity, learners follow simple historical maritime recipes to cook up hardtack and swanky, and then compare the foods they eat to what was served on ships in the past.

In this math lesson, learners apply the concepts of ratio and proportion to the capture-recapture statistical procedure.

In this nutrition activity (page 16 of PDF), learners document their individual eating habits and learn whether their eating patterns meet their needs.

In this dynamic activity, learners build a catapult that launches projectiles, such as marshmallows.

In this activity, learners review the history of gumball machines and explore potential and kinetic energy, while working in teams to build a gumball slide.

In this activity (page 12), learners apply the concepts of pixilation and pointillism to the world of biomedical science.
