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 develop an understanding of cylinders and volume as they compare two sizes of popcorn buckets.

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 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 tabletop activity (on pages 32-40), learners make Möbius strips -- 3D surfaces with only one side.

In this activity, learners cut a shape into two equal sized pieces and use their knowledge of geometry and space to prove that the two parts are equal.

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, use grid coordinates to share secret pictures with a friend. Color squares of a grid to make a picture (like a smiley face) that you keep hidden from the other person.

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

As learners play this game, they build skills in area, perimeter, multiples and factors. They take turns making rectangles with 12 squares on the grid.

¡Este juego de estrategia tiene reglas sencillas pero puede ser un reto! Los jugadores empiezan con una red de hexágonos vacía. En su turno cada jugador pone su inicial en un hexágono vacío.

Los jugadores toman turnos para añadir figuras de tres cuadrados a la cuadrícula. Intenten encajar sus figuras en la cuadrícula de modo que bloquee al otro jugador.

In this activity, learners will measure the length of a shadow and use the distance from the equator to calculate the circumference of the earth.

In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

In this activity, learners explore geometry and spatial relationships as they figure out how to arrange tables for a party.

Learners describe objects in a room using only numbers and shapes. They can measure the object (like a desk) and make a list of facts about it (e.g.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.
