In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this activity, learners discover how the extent of various wind speeds changes in each of the four quadrants around a hurricane.

In this sorting activity, learners play a game in which they try to identify the largest number of differences between two objects.

In this activity, learners "dance" (move back and forth at varying speeds) by reading a graph. This is a kinesthetic way to help learners interpret and understand how motion is graphed.

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

In this math activity, learners play a game in which every roll can earn you counters, but if you roll the wrong number (6), you have to put everything back.

In this activity, learners explore scale by using building cubes to see how changing the length, width, and height of a three-dimensional object affects its surface area and its volume.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners use numbers to create CyberOlympic teams with the fastest times.

In this calculus activity, learners use a classic problem of geometrical probability to find an important mathematical constant (pi).

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

In this math activity, learners jump and measure how far they can jump on different surfaces using different jumping techniques.

Combine math and exercise with this activity. Learners count how many times in a row they can skip rope or throw and catch a ball.

This activity investigates how bark beetles can threaten forests by having learners estimate the number of infected trees from a photo.

In this math activity, learners use cubes to calculate how many blocks it would take to build stairways with different heights.

In this math game (Page 6 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners examine the probability of rolling sums from 0 to 12 with two dice. The first player to reach the finish line is the winner.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

In this interactive and informative group activity, learners use packages of M&M's to illustrate the difference between weather and climate.

In this activity, learners use what they know about probability to figure out what is in a mystery bag. Learners analyze data to guess how many of each color crayons are in the bag.

In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners make decoders to send and receive secret messages. Learners make the device out of two 8-ounce cups and two code strips.
