In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

A group of learners simulates the spread of disease by trading slips of paper, one set of which has been treated with a baking soda solution.

In this activity, learners find as many combinations of a hundred as they can using various puzzle pieces from a hundred square grid paper.

In this activity, learners explore the great pump in their chests--the human heart!

In this activity, learners are challenged to track and record the passage of colored pom poms (representing genes) through generations of a family using a pedigree.

In this activity, learners play a game that helps young mathematicians recognize how the numbers 0 through 5 are related. Learners toss five pompoms into circle made out of string on the floor.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity), learners will look for a relationship between skull size and body length among various dinosaurs.

In this game, learners strategize to win the most cards by building number equations. Learners practice operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) to construct their equations.

In this math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.

In this math activity, learners make and explore patterns using the letters in their names, a grid, and some colors.

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Sea Turtles Activity), learners will model how a sea turtle population changes over time, from eggs to adults, using puffed rice.

In this math game (Page 9 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners determine what makes a spinner fair or unfair. Learners first play a round with a pre-made spinner that isn't very fair.

In this activity (4th on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their ears is more dominant.

In this math activity, learners sort patterns into similar "families" or groups that have the same pattern, but different symbols.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (second activity on the page).

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Learners add calcium chloride to a baking soda solution and observe an increase in temperature along with the production of a gas and a white precipitate. These are all signs of a chemical reaction.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.
