In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this neuroscience activity, learners conduct a simulation to demonstrate how multiple incoming signals influence the action of neurons.

In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.

In this environmental science activity (page 3 of the PDF), leaners will identify and explain the causes of erosion.

In this activity, learners extract DNA from wheat germ. Use this activity to introduce learners to DNA, biotechnology and genetic engineering.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to organize an interactive model for learning the classification system (taxonomy) of living things.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and a dig site. Learners work in groups to analyze a dig site map and match bones to a skeletal drawing of Kelsey (a Triceratops).

In this activity, learners create a garden in a disposable glove. They learn about the conditions necessary to make the seeds sprout and actively participate in caring for their plants.

In this activity, learners investigate color vision as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this experiment with planaria (a type of flatworm), learners will investigate the capability of different body sections to regenerate.

In this health activity (located on page 4 of the PDF), learners will discover the importance of hand washing by observing mold growing on potatoes.

In this outdoor beach activity, learners use a variety of "beaks" (such as trowels, spoons or sticks) to hunt for organisms that shore birds might eat.

In this activity related to the human circulatory system (on page 10 of the PDF), learners observe the dispersion of a drop of food coloring in water, draw conclusions about the movement of dissolved

In this activity, learners estimate risks associated with different events and compare their estimates to the real possibilities.

This activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory) is a full inquiry investigation into the effects of exercise on short term memory.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this outdoor archaeology activity, learners use mathematical skills and scientific inquiry to generate and process information from their own excavation site.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Extreme Sounds) is a full inquiry investigation into sound.

In this activity, learners experiment and observe how the color of materials that cover the Earth affects the amounts of sunlight our planet absorbs.

In this hands-on botany activity, learners sprout vegetables in film canisters.
