Currently Working: Testing Conductivity
Source Institutions
Visitors test solutions of water, sugar, salt, and hydrochloric acid and the solids salt and sugar. They clip leads from the hand generator to wires immersed in each substance.

Electric Highway
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners design and build a circuit: an "electric highway" that connects a battery and buzzer at least three feet apart using four types of materials.

Make Your Own Batteries!
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into conductivity.

Dough Creatures
Source Institutions
In this technology activity, learners light up the room with electrifying play dough creations. Learners use conductive and insulating homemade play dough to build simple circuits.

High Tech Fashion
Source Institutions
In this technology activity, learners build simple circuits, design soft circuits using conductive thread, and then sew switch-activated circuits.
Happy City
Source Institutions
Make a model city happier with LEDs, circuits, motors, and batteries! Groups can think, discuss, design, and build what would make a community happy. Kids can work as part of a team or on their own.

Exploring Materials: Graphene
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.

The Power of Graphene
Source Institutions
This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.
