In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

Learners construct a bracelet containing two strands of beads, which represents a double strand of DNA that codes for a gene. They match beads to the bases in a section of a chimp's DNA code.

In this activity, learners work in partners to create and exchange messages written in Braille. Learners use a Braille key and thumbtacks to write their messages in Braille.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this experiment, learners examine the way oil affects bird feathers and test different cleanup methods to find out which works best.

Make your own spin art device using an old record player! Notice patterns and effects the spinning movement has on your work. When finished, post your work to the Spin Art Gallery!

In this activity, learners use their hands as tools for indirect measurement.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.
