In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

In this activity, learners explore static electricity and electrical charges while experimenting with an inflated balloon, unflavored gelatin powder, and a wool sweater.

In this activity, learners carry out a scientific investigation of dust in their classroom. Learners produce an analysis on graph paper of the dust they collect over the course of a few days.

In this activity, learners will explore paleontology and archaeology. They will learn about technique as they excavate raisins and chocolate chips from cookies.

In this activity, learners mix water, cooking oil, and liquid food coloring to create beautiful colored designs in a cup. Use this activity to explore liquid density and solubility.

In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.

In this activity, learners create a tiny electric, motorized dancer. Learners use the interactions of magnetism and electric current to make a wire spin, while displaying the Lorentz Force in action.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

In this activity (on page 6 of the PDF), learners plot the path of the sun's apparent movement across the sky on two days, with the second day occurring two or three months after the first.

In this activity, learners explore how hot and cold water move. Learners observe that temperature and density affect how liquids rise and fall.

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

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 1 of PDF), learners observe and quantify the growth of yeast when it is given table sugar as a food source.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs), learners will model how paleontologists estimate the age of fossil discoveries by extracting “fossil” playing cards from newspa

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to design a car using only 3 straws, 4 Lifesavers™, 1 piece of paper, 2 paper clips, tape, and scissors.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

This is a guide for facilitating interaction at a touch tank with marine animals. The instructions are for setting up a display in an informal science center, but could work anywhere.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

Have fun with additive mixing! Observe what happens when the three primary colors of light--red, green and blue--are mixed together, resulting in white light.

In this activity, learners will build a bee hotel for pollinators. Learners will explore building and ecology through this activity.
