In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

In this activity, learners investigate the basic crystal structures that metal atoms form.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, learners create their own archaeological profiles.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

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

In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this three-part activity, learners explore how waves are formed and why some waves are bigger than others. First, learners observe waves of water in a pan generated by an electric fan.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners plan and create a 24-foot long, two-dimensional model of our solar system, and compare and contrast the differences between planets and the sun.

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

This neuroscience activity introduces learners to how messages are sent and received by neurons. Learners use modeling clay and pipe cleaners to build model neurons.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

Learners observe two model atmospheres -- one with normal atmospheric composition and another with an elevated concentration of carbon dioxide.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into Bernoulli’s principle and airplane wings.

In this activity, learners use edible models of the DNA molecule to transcribe an mRNA sequence, and then translate it into a protein.

In this activity, learners construct a 3-D paper model depicting how histone, acetyl and methyl molecules control access to DNA and affect gene DNA expression.
