These math posters have questions written on them, such as: How many colors can you name in a minute? or How many seconds can you balance on one foot?

In this activity, learners explore healthy choices related to the liquids they drink. The importance of water and milk as essential nutrients for a healthy body is the focus of the experience.

In this outdoor activity/game, learners use thermometers to simulate how lizards survive in habitats with extreme temperatures.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 8 of PDF), learners estimate average daily baseline energy (Calorie) needs and energy needs for different levels of activity.

In this sunny day experiment, learners measure and compare how quickly light and dark colored materials absorb heat.

In this activity (page 32 of PDF), learners investigate the nutritional needs of healthy bones and muscles.

In this craft activity, learners create a string of cut-out moons and stars.

In this activity about daily rhythms (on page 17 of the PDF), learners will explore circadian patterns in humans, animals and plants.

This lesson focuses on two simple activities that younger learners can do to gain an appreciation of nanotechnology. First, learners measure their hands in nanometers.

In this activity, learners work in teams to construct and test fly drinking straw rockets. Learners explore how changing the rockets' fins affect flight distance.

Build your own version of a favorite carnival game, in which a marble races down a maze consisting of rows of nails.

This game for one to four players uses a deck of cards to develop mental addition skills.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 20 of PDF), learners investigate the structure of muscles by comparing yarn and cooked meat.

In this activity, learners will experiment with textures, shapes, and materials and create their own unique masterpieces.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a rubber band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

In this math lesson, learners construct box-and-whisker plots to analyze and compare data sets. Learners investigate whether or not long-legged people run faster than short-legged people.

In this math lesson, learners identify the likelihood of an event by using a walk-on probability scale.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into conductivity.

Using paper, paper clips, an index card, and tape, teams of learners design flying devices to (1) stay in the air as long as possible and (2) land as close as possible to a given target.
