In this activity, learners build a game that tests their steadiness. Learners construct the game board by setting up an electrical circuit and a wand.

Players take turns adding shapes made of three squares to a grid. They try to fit their shapes on the grid in a way that blocks the other player.

In this activity, learners will use Google Sky to observe features of the night sky and share their observations.

In this activity, learners develop an understanding of cylinders and volume as they compare two sizes of popcorn buckets.

In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

As learners play this strategy game, they develop understanding of squares, area, and perimeter. On each turn, a player draws a line between two dots next to each other on the grid.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, learners participate in a scavenger hunt, searching for and recognizing minerals and products that contain minerals.

In this activity, learners use number sense and mental math strategies to estimate the price of a sign.
