In this activity, learners explore how hot and cold water move. Learners observe that temperature and density affect how liquids rise and fall.

In this engineering activity, learners design parachutes to give toy figures safe landings. This activity is great for practicing an important STEM skill--changing only one variable at a time.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 1 of PDF), learners observe and quantify the growth of yeast when it is given table sugar as a food source.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing an instrument using some metal pipes, rubber bands, and a baseboard.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity, learners explore an everyday situation, where either of two or more buttons can ring a buzzer.

In this activity, learners explore the many uses of periscopes and how this simple device was designed and is used in many applications.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity), learners will see the effects of convection and understand what makes hot air balloons rise.

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their weight in pennies.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, volume, density, and bounce height.

In this exploratory activity, learners experiment, observe and determine how various toys change from one form of energy to another.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

This three-part lab helps learners understand the essential principles governing diffusion and osmosis.

In this activity (page 12), learners explore how molecules self-assemble and how molecules must fit together, like a lock and key, in order to identify each other and initiate a new function as a comb

In this activity, learners explore what makes a boat float and sink. They examine and test various objects to determine why objects float or sink.

This lesson is designed to serve as an introduction to the immune system. It can stand alone or it can lead into further studies of the immune system.

In this three part activity, learners explore and experiment with shadows to learn about the Sun's relative motion in the sky.
