In this game, learners create flash cards with an image on one side (of an animal, for example) and the sound that animal makes on the other.

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

This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

Learners make bell bracelets, place them on their wrists or ankles, and then dance to the rhythms and sounds the bells make. Many cultures use ankle or wrist bells to make music during dancing.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique. This activity allows you to see long, stringy strands of DNA extracted from wheat germ.

How many colors make black? Gather as many water soluble black markers as you can find.

Use grape juice, baking soda, water and vinegar to make acid and base indicator paper! This activity contains a recipe and instructions for the indicator paper.

This activity is a fun way to show two stages in a Monarch butterfly's life cycle. Learners will create an optical illusion that can be flipped from caterpillar to butterfly.

This hands-on activity shows you how to make a shaker -- a small instrument with a big sound! Fill it with beads or even pennies for a cool sound.

In this activity, learners imitate the way vocal cords work by building a model from a plastic cup, rubber band, and a straw.

What's a Pickle-Oh? Two pieces of pickle on a stick are connected to a Pico Cricket (micro controller). When you slide the pickles apart the note changes.

The Sacred Cenote at Chichén Itzá is a sink hole, or well, containing groundwater. In this activity, learners create their own cenote using chalk, limestone, acids, and rain water.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique.

Learners will determine their respiratory rate and explore the factors that affect breathing rate by filling out and using the Respiratory Chart provided in the lesson.

Learners will construct a model of a heart valve using a film canister, a piece of masking tape, and a piece of paper.

In this experiment, learners isolate Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) from onion cells using a simple extraction procedure.

In this activity, learners investigate balance and symmetry by designing a symmetrical butterfly, using a paper cutout.

Experiment with liquids of different densities and create liquid layers. For example, oil and water have different densities: oil floats on water because it is less dense than water.

Many common household cleaners are antimicrobials.

A design challenge that takes paper airplanes into an entirely different direction: a magnus glider uses cups and and rubber bands to create a glider that uses the same forces that a curveball (from b
