In this activity, learners will investigate static electricity as they create waterless snow globes.

In this activity, learners construct a three-dimensional ambiguous cube to explore visual illusions and how our brains interpret or misinterpret information.

In this activity, learners explore different types of fossils by making their out of dough and objects from around the house.

Learners discover how important their thumbs are by attempting various tasks without them. After tying up their thumbs, learners attempt to legibly write their names or play catch with a tennis ball.

In this activity, learners play a game that models what happens as stem cells differentiate into different cell types.

Ocean acidification is a big issue due to the amount of carbon dioxide humans release. CO2 in the atmosphere is absorbed into the ocean thus changing its acidity.

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF), learners make their own totem poles out of recycled materials.

In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.

In this hands-on activity, learners make New Year's Eve party hats out of wrapping paper. Learners use symmetry and measurement to cut out shapes they need to assemble the hats.

In this activity (on page 2), learners create a submarine using a plastic cup. This is a fun way to learn about buoyancy and density.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to invent a water filter that cleans dirty water.

In this activity, learners observe what would happen to their bodies if they went to outer space without a space suit.

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this activity, learners construct a small "air cannon," and use its airflow to put out a candle (lit with the help of an adult).

In this activity, learners will make their own "ball bearing" with two jar lids, marbles, and some household supplies.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.

In this activity, learners separate the protein from milk and and use it to make their own glue.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.
