Learners build a filter from old soda bottles and dirt. They create polluted water, and pour it through their filter to clean it.

In this activity related to indoor air pollution, learners build take-home dust catchers with wax paper and petroleum jelly.

In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

Learners observe a model of a cell and its chromosomal DNA made from a plastic egg and dental floss. Use this model to illustrate how much DNA is held in one cell.

Learners use red cabbage juice and pH indicator paper to test the acidity and basicity of household materials. The activity links this concept of acids and bases to acid rain and other pollutants.

In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this neuroscience activity, learners conduct a simulation to demonstrate how multiple incoming signals influence the action of neurons.

In this activity, learners examine how brine shrimp populations can survive in some of the harshest environments.

In this activity (on page 1 of the PDF), learners make a "mini-globe" to investigate the causes of day and night on our planet.

In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.

This is an activity (located on page 131 of the PDF) related to sleep and circadian rhythms as well as space travel.

In this math activity, learners use a variety of sensory modalities to gain experiences with identifying, describing and creating repeating patterns.

In this activity, learners examine fingerprints. Learners leave a hidden print on a surface and then make their own print detecting powder from graphite (found in pencils).

In this activity about the baroreceptor reflex (BR) arc (page 123 of the PDF), learners discover the importance of maintaining adequate arterial blood pressure through a role playing exercise.

In this multi-part activity learners examine non-point water pollution.

In this activity related to plant biotechnology, learners extract DNA from fruit to investigate how it looks and feels.

In this environmental science activity (page 3 of the PDF), leaners will identify and explain the causes of erosion.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

This activity demonstrates the specificity of viral vectors for target cells in gene therapy delivery methods using two approaches: 1) STYROFOAM® models demonstrate viral ligand binding to receptor pr
