In this activity, learners build bridges and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with straws and pins.

In this activity, learners model hot spot island formation, orientation and progression with condiments.

In this activity, learners make bridges using an oil-based modeling clay (plasticene). The instructions include discussion questions for both before and after bridge building.

In this activity, two groups of learners create two separate landform models out of clay (mountains and valleys).

In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of magnetic fields by inserting a small, strong magnet into a sphere.
