This is written as a static display, but can easily become a hands-on experiment for learners.

This is an activity that demonstrates how batteries work using simple household materials. Learners use a pickle, aluminum foil and a pencil to create an electrical circuit that powers a buzzer.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from onion cells using simple materials.

Why does milk make some people sick? In this activity learners explore this question and explore the chemistry of milk, and our bodies!

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

In this simulation, learners become birds different beak types. Learners use various tools to represent beaks to pick up seeds and place them in a petri dish.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can utilize it to investigate volume, mass, and density.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

This activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under GPS: Sea Turtles Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into testing a repair material.

In this activity, learners can observe chaotic motion. A magnet tied to a piece of string makes a pendulum, which swings over three sets of fixed magnets.

In this activity, learners make their own solar oven to bake s'mores and learn about how solar energy is absorbed on Earth.

Learners play the role of materials engineers as they test the flexibility of different materials.

In this activity, learners draw natural objects to explore the details, differences, and similarities of natural objects.

In this activity, learners make edible T. rex teeth (with adult assistance). The treat is a white and dark chocolate covered banana on a stick.

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity, learners create their own archaeological profiles.
