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

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

Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

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

In this activity, learners build edible models of Jupiter and Earth to compare their sizes and illustrate the planets' internal layers.

In this activity, learners compare the ways of life of Plains Native Americans who hunted and moved frequently to follow the buffalo herds, and Native Americans who farmed and lived in more permanent

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

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

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

In this activity, learners shrink the scale of the vast solar system to the size of their neighborhood.

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

In this activity, learners review and discuss weathering, erosion and mass wasting, to gain a stronger understanding of how Hickory Run’s Boulder Field was formed after the Laurentide Continental Glac

In this quick activity, learners drink Avogadro's number worth of molecules - 6.02x10^23 molecules!

In this activity, learners make edible T. rex teeth (with adult assistance). The treat is a white and dark chocolate covered banana on a stick.

In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Lift Off), learners will use the ever-popular soda geyser experiment to test the reactivity of the various sugar candies or mints.

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs) is a full inquiry investigation into decomposition.

Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.
