The Liquid Rainbow
Source Institutions
Learners are challenged to discover the relative densities of colored liquids to create a rainbow pattern in a test tube.

Burn a Peanut
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners burn a peanut, which produces a flame that can be used to boil away water and count the calories contained in the peanut.

Size, Scale and Models
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

What's So Special about Water: Solubility and Density
Source Institutions
In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

Stomp Rocket
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build rockets and shoot them into the air by stomping on the plastic bottle launchers.

PVC Water Squirter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a water squirter using a PVC pipe, dowel, and foam. This activity is great for the summer time and introduces learners to forces and water pressure.

Source Institutions
Learners classify a variety of objects by their characteristics. They then design an experiment to determine which objects float or sink in water and add this characteristic to their classification.
Stability of Egg White Foams
Source Institutions
In this chemistry meets cooking activity, learners compare the stability of egg white foams with various additives.

That's the Way the Ball Bounces: Level 2
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, volume, density, and bounce height.

Going Green
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

Measuring with Flubber
Source Institutions
In this activity learners will measure and manipulate flubber using different tools. Learners will explore volume and make observations about texture and shapes.

Design and Build a Better Candy Bag
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

Ship the Chip
