In this activity, learners will engineer a new shape and use it to create a new pattern with no wasted space.

In this ocean engineering activity, learners explore buoyancy and water displacement. Then, learners design models of deep sea divers that are neutrally buoyant.

In this online activity, learners find out whether they are smart enough to survive as a plant.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

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

"What's in the Water" lets participants use tools to solve the mystery- what chemicals and compounds are in a sample of water?

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.

This three-part activity shows learners how to build three meteorology tools: a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a barometer.

In this activity, learners construct a coastal landmass from sand and add features such as tidal creeks and barrier islands.

In this quick activity, learners practice locating a constellation in a map of very dark skies.

In this activity, learners thread colored beads onto string. Each beach represent a process of the water cycle.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

In this activity, learners use earthworms as "unknown creatures" from the South American jungle to find out how animals use senses.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity), learners will look for a relationship between skull size and body length among various dinosaurs.

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Sea Turtles Activity), learners will model how a sea turtle population changes over time, from eggs to adults, using puffed rice.

In this sensory activity, learners enjoy the fun of a snow day any season of the year.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

Learners build a solar oven from a cardboard pizza box, aluminum foil and plastic. Learners can use their oven to cook S'mores or other food in the sun.

In this activity, learners eat a snack and make a model of the plumbing system of a volcano.

In this group activity, learners use some common objects and work together to simulate the Coriolis effect. During the challenge, learners make predictions and test different scenarios.
