In this activity related to nanotechnology, learners observe some of the effects that result from creating a thin layer of material several nanometers thick.

In this optics activity, learners explore color by examining color dots through colored water and the light of a flashlight.

In this activity, learners determine the necessary conditions for pea seed germination.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Stained Glass Activity) about nanotechnology making its way into everyday products, such as sunscreen, and how effective these invisible particl

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners explore how we see color.

In this activity, learners test the Law of Reflection based on experimental evidence. Learners produce raw data and explanations based on their data: pencil tracings of incident and reflection rays.

Learners examine the properties of light by experimenting with an LED-flashlight and polarizing filters. When two polarizers are used, they block all light when they are placed at right angles.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this four-part activity, learners explore light and sound through a variety of hands-on investigations.

In this math activity related to light, learners assemble a photometer and use it to estimate the power output of the Sun.
