In this online activity, learners build their own system of heavenly bodies and watch the gravitational ballet.

In this activity, learners measure the amount of carbon dioxide in a carbonated drink.

This is a quick, yet dramatic activity/demonstration that introduces learners to the concept of energy transfer. A small ball is placed on top of a large ball and both are dropped together.

In this activity, learners explore engineering package designs that meet the needs of safely shipping a product.

In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into Bernoulli’s principle and airplane wings.

In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate air has weight by comparing an inflated balloon to a deflated one.

In this activity, learners explore a scale by comparing objects, which look similar but have different weights. Learners predict and then measure the weights of various objects using a scale.

In this activity, learners determine the elastic and plastic properties of different types of metal wires.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of density by pouring 5 different liquids into a jar. Food coloring is added if needed to give each liquid a distinct color.

In this activity, learners use basic measurements of the Earth and pieces of rock and iron to estimate the mass of the Earth.

Learners make a mobile model of a carbon atom using clay, wire, and pipe cleaners.
