In this team design challenge (page 19-24 of PDF), learners "land" a model Lunar Rover in a model Landing Pod (both previously built in activities #3 and #4 in PDF).

In this math lesson, learners use the setting of a flower-making fundraiser to explore a variety of patterns. Learners examine the patterns in a flower design made of triangles surrounding a square.

In this math lesson, learners identify, describe, and construct the five regular polyhedra.

In this classic hands-on activity, learners estimate the length of a molecule by floating a fatty acid (oleic acid) on water.

In this team design challenge (page 2-10 of PDF), learners design and build a model of a Lunar Transport Rover that will carry equipment and people on the surface of the Moon.

In this activity, learners measure the amount of carbon dioxide in a carbonated drink.

In this team design challenge (page 11-18 of PDF), learners design and build a Landing Pod for a model Lunar Rover (previously built in activity on page 1-10 of PDF).

In this activity, learners use a straight line to learn about circles. Learners measure and record the diameter and circumference of different sized cylindrical objects on a chart.

In this calculus activity, learners use a classic problem of geometrical probability to find an important mathematical constant (pi).

This activity helps learners learn about math through a real-world scenario. Three friends are baking cookies for their school’s bake sale.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this activity, learners play a series of simple games to investigate navigation without visual and sound cues.

In this activity, learners explore patterns and sequences as they observe fictional plant growth.

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

In this math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.

In this math activity, learners predict how many pom-poms they can toss inside a circle from three feet away. Use this activity to help learners explore probability.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this activity, learners build and play three math games. In the first game, called "Switcheroo," learners place marbles in holes 1 through 4 and 7 through 10.

In this activity, learners explore how mirrors reflect light and change the way we see things.

In this math lesson, learners model exponential decay and exponential growth using M&M's, paper folding, and African rhino population data.
