In this math lesson, learners investigate fractions by playing a game.

In this activity, learners use the Sun's energy to cook marshmallows. Learners construct the solar oven out of simple everyday materials.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers incorporate biometric technologies into products as well as the challenges of engineers who must weigh privacy, security and other issues when designin

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.

In this group activity, learners make multi-sided polygons with string.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

In this activity, learners actually feel the difference in energy required to light two different types of light bulbs: incandescent light and LEDs.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have developed sorting systems which integrate into manufacturing and packaging processes. Learners explore how coins are made.

In this activity, learners build mini catapults using paint paddles and a spoon. Use this activity to introduce learners to forces and projectile motion.

In this design challenge activity, learners use tubes of newspaper to make a table that’s at least eight inches tall and strong enough to hold a heavy book!

In this activity, learners separate materials based on their special properties to mimic the way recyclables are sorted at recycling centers.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to remove the bottom coin of a stack of nickels without knocking over the stack. Use this activity to demonstrate friction.

Coins are everyday objects which tell a lot about the people who use them.

In this data analysis activity, learners use data collected by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to study Chilean sea bass populations.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Doghouse Design) is a full inquiry investigation into absorption and reflection of radiant energy.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of friction and how ball bearings reduce friction.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

Learners describe objects in a room using only numbers and shapes. They can measure the object (like a desk) and make a list of facts about it (e.g.

In this online game, learners must purchase power plants for their city.

In this activity, learners design a bungee jump for an egg using nylon stockings.
