In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

In this activity, learners discover that they can create a lens from a water drop. Learners test their lens by looking at words or pictures.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) about the mixture of materials in bone and how they affect its strength.

Using a milk-based recipe, learners create "moo glue" which is basically white school-type glue. The "secret ingredient" in milk that helps make glue is a chemical called casein.

You may have tried to throw a curveball or a slider, or even a screwball, with an ordinary baseball and found it difficult to do.

Learners build structures from spaghetti and marshmallows to determine which structures are able to handle the greatest load.

In this activity, learners explore water pressure by conducting an experiment with a garden hose. Learners build a testing apparatus and create PVC nozzles with different sized holes.

Hooray! In this design challenge activity, learners invent a device that launches a spoonful of confetti into the air. Learners are encouraged to create the biggest cloud of confetti possible.

In this activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting), learners will construct an air cannon by cutting a hole in the bottom of a bucket and stretching a garbage bag over the other end

In this activity (1st on the page), learners explore circadian rhythms by keeping track of their body temperature.

In this engineering activity, learners test the stability of towers they build out of cups, discovering that structures with more mass in the base are more stable.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment by heating an aluminum can filled with water to investigate air pressure.

In this activity, learners compare and contrast different forms of luminescence by observing how chemiluminescence, phosphorescence, and fluorescence produce or emit light.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of conducting or insulating electricity.

In this chemistry activity, learners use the lowered freezing point of water to chill another mixture (ice cream) to the solid state.

In this activity, learners become detectives and use chemistry to investigate fingerprints.

In this activity, learners create a cool floating animal using the science of magnetism. Learners discover what happens when a piece of magnetic metal enters a magnet's field.

In this quick activity, learners drink Avogadro's number worth of molecules - 6.02x10^23 molecules!

In this optics activity, learners use glass and water to demonstrate total internal reflection (TIR).
