In this activity, learners will become an engineer by designing and engineering a miniature parachute.

In this art activity (page seven of the pdf), learners will use their creativity to make a "motion collage." Each student will be encouraged to draw a picture of something that moves to be a part of t

In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a handkerchief holds water in an upside-down glass.

This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Butterfly Wings Activity) that illustrates how nanoscale structures, so small they're practically invisible, can produce visible/colorful effects.

In this sorting activity, learners play a game in which they try to identify the largest number of differences between two objects.

In this math lesson, learners explore polynomial and rational function patterns.

In this environmental science activity, learners research what is essential for plant life and the necessary components of soil to support plants.

In this activity, learners experiment with shadows and light sources to understand the relationship between the angle illumination and the shadow's length.

In this math activity, learners use non-standard measurement (paces) to find the distance from one point to another. Learners practice estimating and measuring distances .

In this optics activity, learners discover basic lens-making techniques by using a tennis ball to make a lens out of ice.

In this activity, learners explore how casts of fossilized bones are created and used to learn about dinosaurs. Learners make observations, draw diagrams and share their findings.

Before there were clocks, people used shadows to tell time. In this outdoor activity, learners will discover how to tell time using only a compass, a pencil, a handy printout, and a sunny day.

In this outdoor activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Baseball Activity), learners will investigate the transfer of energy using sports equipment.

In this activity, learners make some music by constructing a kazoo out of a simple plastic drinking straw. Use this activity to explore sound, vibrations, and music.

In this activity, learners will explore basic information about thermodynamics by experimenting with ice. Learners will compare ice melting rates on metal pans or plastic cutting boards.

In this activity on page 2 of the PDF, learners discover how color changes can help scientists distinguish between acids and bases.

Millions of organisms can live in and around a body of water.

This is a great activity about wave interference. Learners will create their own wave machine and discover wave properties through hands-on investigation.

In this activity, learners explore how salt water freezes in comparison to fresh water.

In this great hands-on activity, learners use patterns to make a teepee from newspaper that they sit inside.
