Free-Fall Bottles & Tubes
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners conduct two experiments to explore free-falling.
Fossil Fuels: Facing the Issues
Source Institutions
Through doing these hands-on activities, learners explore the environmental consequences associated with fossil fuel usage.
Corals and Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate how increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the burning of fossil fuels is changing the acidity (pH) of the ocean and affecting coral reefs and other marin
Air, It's Really There
Source Institutions
This lesson focuses on molecular motion in gases. Learners compare the mass of a basketball when it is deflated and after it has been inflated.
How Do We Convert Electrical Energy into Mechanical Energy?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make an electromagnet motor to demonstrate the most basic method of changing electrical energy into mechanical energy.
Sink It
Source Institutions
Learners classify a variety of objects by their characteristics. They then design an experiment to determine which objects float or sink in water and add this characteristic to their classification.
How Do We Convert Mechanical Energy into Electrical Energy?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use a compass, powerful magnet, and copper magnet wire to build a special generator known as a dynamo.
Bend That Bar
Learners play the role of materials engineers as they test the flexibility of different materials.
Food for the Brain
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners dissect a piece of pizza to learn about nutrients important for health.
Observing Cells
Source Institutions
In this playful activity, learners explore the structure of the cell—the basic unit of every living organism—by creating a model of cell structures using soap bubbles, and by examining a slice of onio
Floating and Falling Flows
Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.
