Learners conduct four simple experiments to demonstrate the effects of air pressure.

In this puzzle, learners investigate the decisions involved in linking a network between houses in a muddy city.

Learners listen to and try to decipher a radio message that was sent from Earth to possible intelligent civilizations.

In this game, learners use clues to identify mystery shapes. Use everyday objects (like from the pantry) as the shapes.

Learners construct a rocket from a balloon propelled along a guide string.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides), learners will whip up some suds with a cup of water and a tablespoon of dish soap until the bubbles are stiff enough to star

Learners make a skydiver and parachute contraption and launch it. They see that the drag created by air resistance slows the descent of skydivers as they travel back to Earth.

This game is like regular bingo, except the clues are sounds.

In this math activity (Page 8 of the Dining Out! PDF), younger learners select items from a menu and count out the total amount needed using the fewest bills and coins possible.

In this tabletop board game, players will represent a team of scientists and engineers sending a spacecraft on a mission to space.

In this math activity, each learner creates a book about themselves using a template. Learners discuss the different parts of the body and practice measuring their body parts using crayons.

In this activity, learners analyze a fictionalized report of life on Mars, based on a real NASA satellite photo, and explore how to separate scientific fact from fiction.

During this lesson, learners will determine their blood pressure and learn about systolic and diastolic pressures.

Directed by instructional cards, learners kinesthetically model cell communication by acting as components in a cell signaling pathway.

In the related activity called "Colors Collide or Combine," learners are intrigued by the apparent "line" that forms where colors from M&M coatings meet but do not mix.

In this genetics meets math activity, learners take inventories of their own easily-observable genetic traits and compare those inventories with other learners in groups.

In this weather forecasting activity, learners use common materials to construct a rain gauge and measure daily, monthly, and yearly rainfall.
