The "Rocket Reactions" activity is an exciting way to learn about how materials interact, behave, and change.

In this activity, learners separate the protein from milk and and use it to make their own glue.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.

Many of the genetic sequences found in the fruit fly genome are similar to those found in humans.

In this activity, learners will experiment with density and chemical reactions to create a flurry activity.

In this activity, learners investigate the process of osmosis by adding salt to a sealed bag of raw carrots and comparing it to a control.

In this activity, learners will create beautiful greeting cards by marbling with shaving cream and food dye. They will explore the chemistry behind the art of marbling.

Using yeast, sugar, and water, learners create a chemical reaction which produces carbon dioxide (CO2) gas inside a 2-liter bottle. They use this gas to inflate a balloon.

Learners investigate one factor affecting reaction rates: temperature. In a darkened room, two identical lightsticks are placed in water -- one in hot water and one in cold water.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).
