In this activity, learners will use Google Sky to observe features of the night sky and share their observations.

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

In this activity, learners working in pairs saturate a cotton ball using water drops from an eyedropper to demonstrate the high water capacity of clouds.

In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

This great "re-use it" activity will demonstrate how to transform a greeting card into a box. Once constructed, the box can have many uses like holding special notes or keepsakes.

In this activity, learners discover that as the salinity of water increases, the density increases as well. Learners prove this by attempting to float fresh eggs in saltwater and freshwater.

In this quick activity, learners observe how the added sugar in a can of soda affects its density and thus, its ability to float in water.

This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

In this activity, learners explore how the power of the sun can be harnessed to heat and cool a building.

In this activity, learners explore how wind energy can be generated on both a large and small scale.

In this activity, learners investigate various appliances and electronics, discovering how much energy each uses and how much carbon dioxide (CO2) is released to produce that energy.

In this activity, learners listen to a story and tell a story of their own as they learn about the importance of elders in Native American cultures.

In this up-cycling activity, learners recycle plastic bags and repurpose them into useful wallets.

In this activity, learners explore how packaging engineers develop customized shipping and packaging containers to meet the needs of many different industries.

In this activity, learners perform an experiment that replicates the dilemma faced by birds in acquiring food from a confined area.

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.

This is an activity about the adaptations that allow the Aye-aye to survive in its habitat. Learners will explore how the Aye-aye collects food and how this is influenced by their specialized finger.
