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

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

In this activity, learners create a CloudSpotter wheel and record the different types of clouds they observe twice daily over several days.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners make 3-dimensional models of the Earth and Moon.

This activity is about the mural making process done about 9,000 years ago in Catalhoyuk, Turkey.

In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.

Learners use simple materials to construct a model the Big Dipper. Learners hang the model from a doorway or ceiling and look up at it to see the constellation as seen from Earth.

In this activity, learners will swirl paint into shaving cream to make an extravagant nebula print.

Things that are different sizes and stiffness vibrate differently, and in this Exploratorium Science Snack, you'll see how rings of various diameters react to vibration and external forces.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF), learners sing together a song that gives details about the dinosaur species Suchomimus (pronounced “Sook-o-mime-us”).

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

Learners measure irregularly shaped bones using a variety of measurement methods and tools. Then, they measure again using standard conventions and metric tape measures.

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore how to change the direction of water flow. Learners make puddles in dirt or use existing puddles and sticks to make water flow.

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

"Exploring the Solar System: Craters" is an active, hands-on activity that demonstrates how craters form, and what they can teach us about the history and composition of planets and moons.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils by making an edible treat. First, learners read "Dinosaur Bones" by Aliki to examine how fossils are formed.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most to learn about the different sizes of dinosaurs.

In this activity you'll see how the sun's tilt on its axis changes the length of shadows. For example, why is your shadow longer in winter than in summer?

In this activity, young learners will model land and water on the Earth's surface to make a unique piece of "Earth Art." Activity includes materials list, step-by-step instructions, STEM connections a
