This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Surface Area Activity) about surface area to volume ratio.

Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.

Learners explore the physical properties of a variety of balls and how they bounce.

In this activity (3rd on the page), learners investigate circadian rhythms by examining how well people do with estimating time.

Learners build at least two different spinners (tops) to investigate how mass distribution, size, and shape affect the length of time the spinner spins.

In this activity, learners investigate whether having sugar already dissolved in water affects the speed of dissolving and the movement of sugar and color through the water.

In this activity, learners follow a recipe to create play dough scented with fruit-flavored drink mix.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity about electricity, learners produce a spark that they can feel, see, and hear. Learners rub a Styrofoam plate with wool to give it an electric charge.

In this challenge, learners figure out how to make a juice stain disappear.

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

In this activity (located on page 4 of PDF), learners gain insight into the actual size of dinosaurs and practice making estimations and measurements.

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

In this activity, learners mix several sugar solutions to investigate the property of density. Each sugar solution has a different density and color of the rainbow.

In this activity, learners listen to a story about a made-up endangered species--a flying frog! Learners print out six story pages and then draw the pictures and write the captions.

In this activity, learners use a pencil, magnets, and mat board to illustrate Newton's Second Law.

In this activity, learners create their own weather forecast map.

In this activity (page 4), learners work in groups to plan and build large structures using recyclable materials they have brought from home.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forensics), learners will use a home video camera with a “night vision” mode to test how various inks appear outside the spectrum of visibl

In this activity, learners use a laser pointer to project a microscopic image of a liquid sample suspended from the tip of a syringe.
