In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Roller Coaster Design Activity), learners will use food cans of many different properties (sizes, shapes, and weights) and set two cans on their sides at

In this activity, learners work in teams to study the observation skills essential to scientific research.

Learners manipulate opaque, sealed boxes and attempt to determine their interior structures. Each box contains a moving ball and one or more fixed barriers.

Learners conduct an experiment to determine the rate at which two materials, sand and water, heat up and cool down.

In this lab activity, learners act as fellow scientists and colleagues of Isaac Newton. He has asked them to independently test his ideas on the nature of motion, in particular his 2nd Law.

Learners observe the outside and inside of raw chicken eggs, record descriptions, and hypothesize what will happen when a facilitator drops an egg on the floor.

Learners work in teams to investigate how scientists use physical characteristics to classify living things.

In this activity, learners design a device to solve a problem: how to get a ball out of a drain pipe.
