This is part 2 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity and must be done after part 1: Sedimentary Rocks. In this activity, learners explore how metamorphic rocks form.

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this two-part activity, learners use household items to smell the difference between some stereoisomers, or molecules which are mirror images of one another.

Learners work as a group to create a map of their community. They use pasta to represent people, and glue the pasta on their maps to show areas of large population.

In this activity about light and perception, learners create and observe moire patterns.

Learners build a simple electromagnet, then use this electromagnet to transform a yogurt container into a working speaker. They can connect their speaker to a radio and listen as it transmits sound.

In this activity, learners extract DNA from a strawberry and discover that DNA is in the food they eat.

Learners build structures from spaghetti and marshmallows to determine which structures are able to handle the greatest load.

In this activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting), learners will construct an air cannon by cutting a hole in the bottom of a bucket and stretching a garbage bag over the other end

In this activity, learners try to put together toy bricks—wearing oven mitts on their hands! This activity shows learners how difficult it is to build small things when your tools are too big.

In this activity, learners calculate the number of milliliters of water a nearby tree transpires per day.

In this chemistry activity, learners use the lowered freezing point of water to chill another mixture (ice cream) to the solid state.

In this activity, learners will explore light and rainbows with this easy setup! Learners will only need a cup of water, some paper and a flashlight.

In this activity, learners observe color mixing and absorbency using colored tissue paper and spray bottles.

In this activity, learners experiment with how dish soap and fat interact by making a colorful swirl.

In this demonstration/activity, learners observe as a regular size marshmallow is blown through a tube made from a manila file folder.

In this activity, learners become detectives and use chemistry to investigate fingerprints.

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

In this activity, learners explore mammal locomotion by constructing flipbooks.

In this hands-on activity, learners simulate the crashing and smashing of a meteor impact using household cooking supplies.
