In this activity learners observe mold growth on different types of bread by measuring and recording the growth rate.

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.

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

In this activity, learners create an electrical circuit and investigate how some dissolved substances conduct electricity.

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

In this activity, learners cut wells in JELL-O© and load the wells with different detergent solutions.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Self-Assembly Activity) about self-assembly, the ability of molecules to assemble themselves according to certain rules.

In this activity on page 9 of the PDF, learners test how flavoring extracts move through the walls of a balloon.

In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

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 quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity), learners will observe how dry breakfast cereal appears to dance when it gets close to a balloon charged with static

In this activity, learners make self-assembled polymer spheres.

Learners use Benedict’s solution and heat to test for the presence of simple sugars in glucose, sucrose, starch, and starch combined with amylase.

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