In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this activity, learners build mini-basketball courts and explore the laws of physics. Learners discover that everything you throw or shoot on earth travels in a parabola.

In this on site "field trip" activity (located on pages 6-9 of PDF), learners get hands-on experience identifying building materials by playing "Building Bingo".

This activity is a sensory experience that recreates the sounds of a pond at night.

In this physics activity, learners construct a small-scale version of a classic carnival game.

Build your own version of a favorite carnival game, in which a marble races down a maze consisting of rows of nails.

In this optics activity, learners conduct an experiment to find out why two eyes are better than one!

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a pinball-like game where a kick stick hits a ping pong ball into a target that buzzes.

In this activity, learners explore the properties of metals at four stations. The stations include A) Magnetism and Breakfast Cereal; B) Conductivity of Metals; C) Alloys; and D) Metal Plating.

In this interactive board game, learners "hire" different types of scientists to help canine character Ruff Ruffman solve unusual problems.
