In this simulation, learners use M&M™ candy to explore radioactive isotope decay.

In this math lesson, learners analyze the density of liquids in order to explore linear functions.

Learners conduct a "blind" taste-test of several types of enhanced or fitness water drinking water that has commercially added substances like vitamins, sugars, or herbs.

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.

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

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

In this activity about light and refraction, learners make a lens and magnifying glass by filling a bowl with water.

In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners discover that a magnet falls more slowly through a metallic tube than it does through a nonmetallic tube.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

In this activity, learners will build the highest tower they can out of recycled materials.

In this activity, learners compare water pressure at different depths. Learners discover that water pressure increases with depth.

In this activity, learners make their own "tornado" using two soda bottles and water.

In this activity, learners explore motion, energy, and electricity by constructing bottle cars that run on motors.
