Hanging Around
Learners investigate weight by building a spring scale. They observe and record how it responds to objects with different masses.
Doughy Physics
Source Institutions
Learners drop two different masses of play dough and observe how long it takes them to hit the ground.
Swinging Yo-Yo
Source Institutions
Learners build a pendulum from a yo-yo, and then design their own experiment to determine what affects the pendulum's period of swing.
Marble Run!
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Luge) is a full inquiry-based challenge related to motion and design optimization.
Can Energy be Created or Destroyed?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.
Luminescence
Source Institutions
In this two-part activity about luminescence, learners explore the chemistry that happens inside glow sticks and other light producing reactions.
Balloon Impacts
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners measure the diameter of their water balloons, model an impact, measure the diameter of the “crater” area, and determine the ratio of impactor to crater.
