Create a chemical reaction that makes cheese! This hands-on activity demonstrates that molecules and atoms are tiny particles that make up everything around us.

In this cooperative game, learners devise strategies about sharing a small space with each other.

Fat is a very important component in our diet. It's the most efficient source of energy in our bodies, and plays an important role in the flavor of foods.

In this activity, learners cut out a fish and then "paint" it using universal indicator and acids and bases.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to organize an interactive model for learning the classification system (taxonomy) of living things.

In this activity, learners of all ages will experiment with paint and printmaking.

In this physics activity, learners will explore the concept of buoyancy, especially as it relates to density.

Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

In this health activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will discover why covering their mouth and nose while sneezing is so important.

In this activity, learners design a crushing test and discover that identifying and controlling the variables may be difficult.

In this sensory activity, young learners explore chemical reactions by making their own play dough from home.

In this activity learners will be creating art using a traditional Japanese art style.

In this activity about dinosaurs and survival, learners use scrap materials to create a miniature dinosaur habitat that includes a food source, water source, and shelter.

In this activity, learners build a tool called an inclinometer that can find the height of any distant object, from a tree to the North Star.

In "Exploring the Solar System: Mars Rovers," participants learn about how scientists and engineers use robotic rovers and other vehicles to explore distant worlds, and experience some of the challeng

This is an activity about rockets. Learners will explore how rockets leave Earth's orbit and what it takes to make a launch successful.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.

In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.

In this activity, learners will dissect a pumpkin or winter squash to learn the parts of the plant. This activity gets your learner hands on with every part of the plant and will be messy.
