In this activity, learners discover the principles of edible glass by making a supersaturated sugar solution.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

In this activity, learners explore accuracy and precision.

In this activity, learners identify different plastics in a mystery bag. Learners discover that plastics are classified #1 through #7.

This highly visual model demonstrates the atomic theory of matter which states that a gas is made up of tiny particles of atoms that are in constant motion, smashing into each other.

In this simulation of natural selection, learners use binder clips in three different sizes to represent the diversity of beak sizes in a bird population.

In this activity (page 18 of PDF), learners will measure the volume of impact craters created by projectiles of different masses.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this life science activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners explore the carbon cycle by mixing yeast, sugar and water.

In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.

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

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

This fun hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore models of the Milky Way and other galaxies to get a sense of relative distances to other galaxies.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, volume, density, and bounce height.
