Learners build a filter from old soda bottles and dirt. They create polluted water, and pour it through their filter to clean it.

In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this chemistry activity, learners use thin layer chromatography to determine the molecular composition of different markers.

In this activity, learners explore what happens when polarized white light passes through a sugar solution.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate whether the temperature of the surrounding water affects the rate at which the colored coating dissolves from an M&M.

In this experiment, learners separate different types of molecules in marker inks (using a technique called "thin layer chromatography").

Learners create hard water by mixing Epsom salt and water. Then they compare what happens when soap solution is mixed with hard water and regular water.

In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of PDF SciGirls Activity: Milk Carton Boat), learners will create a blob of stretchable funny putty out of a water, borax, and glue mixture.

In this simulation, learners use M&M™ candy to explore radioactive isotope decay.

Learners investigate how temperature affects the rate of chemical reactions by observing how steel wool reacts with various types of Kool-Aid solutions at different temperatures.

In this activity, learners will discover what colors are in different markers, and may be surprised at the results.

In this fun chemistry activity (page 3 of the pdf), learners use cabbage juice to determine the pH of several substances.

In this activity on page 15 of the PDF, learners measure the amount of bubbles that they make using a detergent.

In this activity, learners will create their own lava lamps. Learners will explore density, effervescence and chemistry through this activity.

In this activity, learners will explore acid-base reactions and create their own bubbly results.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate how pollution diffuses through ground material.

In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

In this experiment, learners will explore whether increased carbon dioxide makes our oceans more basic or more acidic.
