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

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

In this geology activity learners build a "squeeze box," which allows them to compress layers of sediment. This is a great way to investigate folding and faulting in the Earth.

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

In this activity, learners explore why the sky is blue. Learners model the scattering of light by the atmosphere, which creates the blue sky and red sunset, using a flashlight and clear glue sticks.

This is a quick activity that shows how large amounts of rock and sediment are added to the edge of continents during subduction.
