In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

In this activity, learners make three different "seed" types and determine which design flies the farthest.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners use simple materials to investigate evaporation. How can the evaporation of water on a hot day be used to cool an object? Find out the experimental way!

In this activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

How do you measure a bubble when it's floating? You can't really, but in this activity, learners can measure the diameter of the ring of suds a bubble leaves on a flat surface.

In this activity, learners use their hands as tools for indirect measurement.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

In this activity, learners help create and then navigate an outdoor course of the traditional "planets" (including dwarf planet Pluto), which are represented by small common objects.

This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

Learners investigate why the Sun and Moon appear the same size in the sky even though the Sun is over 400 times larger in diameter.

In this activity, learners compare the ancient Egyptian system of measurement, which was based on body lengths, to the customary and metric systems used today.

How do scientists measure how clear or murky water in a lake is? How does water clarity (clearness) affect what lives in the lake?

This simple activity uses paper and scissors to convey two key concepts to learners: the nanoscale is very small and working on the nanoscale requires special tools.

In this math activity related to volume, learners use problem solving skills to calculate and build a model house for Minus the dog.
