In this chemistry challenge, learners systematically investigate which combination of four solutions produces a deep red color.

In this math lesson, learners identify and compare unit costs of given items. Learners use computation skills, problem solving and number sense to find the cost of an ounce of cereal.

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities.

In this activity, learners consider how oil spills behave in the ocean and what impact they have on marine wildlife.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this archaeology activity, learners make observations and conduct an experiment to demonstrate the effect saltwater has on artifacts.

Lakes, streams and other freshwater bodies are a habitat for lots of living things, big and small.

In this activity, learners are introduced to robotic submarines called gliders. Learners make “gliders” from plastic syringes and compare these to Cartesian bottles and plastic bubbles.

In this activity, learners will discover why there are holes in bread.

In this activity, learners build a Wilberforce Pendulum, a special coupled pendulum in which energy is transferred between two modes of vibration, longitudinal ("bounce') and torsional ("twist"), on a

In this two-part activity, learners will extract their own DNA from their cheek cells and learn how DNA is analyzed and used to solve crimes.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Butterfly Wings Activity) about how visible light is affected by tiny nanoscale structures, producing iridescence on butterfly wings, soap bubbl

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore what it means to work together as a team.

In this activity, pairs of learners model how scientists use craters to determine the ages of lunar surfaces. One partner keeps time while the other creates a painting for the other to interpret.

In this activity, learners explore chemiluminescence and fluorescence. Learners examine 3 different solutions in regular light, in the dark with added bleach solution, and under a black light.

In this activity, learners investigate the history and development of agricultural biotechnology.

In this activity about electricity, learners build and test a paper clip switch to turn on a light bulb.

In this activity (page 13 of the PDF), learners discover how weathering and erosion change the Earth’s surface.

In this activity (page 23 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to determine how the size and mass of a projectile affects the area and the volume of an impact crater.
