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

In this activity, you'll make an electric motor--a simple version of the electric motors found in toys, tools, and appliances everywhere.

In this activity, learners make different shapes that hold exactly one mole of gas (air).

In this activity, learners make cool boxes out of old (or new) greeting cards or postcards.

In this activity, learners make a photographic image--without a camera!

In this activity, learners arrange triangles together to make patterns to create paper quilts. Learners experiment with arranging the triangles in different ways to make various designs.
