In this physical sciences activity, learners explore insulation. Leaners investigate how insulation can be used to slow down the conduction of heat from one side of a wall to the other.

In this activity, learners compare and contrast their own skin (including the area covered) with that of an orange.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their breathing and pulse rates, and learn how these measurements are affected by physical activity.

In this activity, learners repeat patterns in two and three dimensions to create tessellations.

In this activity, learners conduct scientific research on multitasking. Learners determine if multitasking with media while doing homework affects their ability to successfully complete the homework.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

In this activity, learners build penetrometers to test leaf toughness. Biologists measure leaf toughness to study the feeding preferences of insects and bugs.

In this activity, learners explore the relative size of the Sun and Earth as well as the distance between them.

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

In this physical sciences activity, learners explore how forensic investigators collect prints from a crime scene. Learners make hand impressions in damp sand and analyze the patterns they observe.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent an emergency shelter that can fit a person and is sturdy and quick to build.

In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.

In this environmental health activity, learners grow and observe bread mold and other kinds of common fungi over the course of 3-7 days.
