In this activity, learners explore a bucket of sand and beach objects.

In this quick activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Lava Flow Activity), learners will model how large depressions near the top of a volcano are formed by using an inflating and deflating balloon submerg

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners go on a nature walk outside and describe what they observe using their senses.

In this kinesthetic activity, learners will play a game with a ball to demonstrate the Coriolis force, which partly explains why hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

In this team design challenge (page 2-10 of PDF), learners design and build a model of a Lunar Transport Rover that will carry equipment and people on the surface of the Moon.

In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

In this activity, learners explore how the process of folding has impacts on engineering and is evident in nature.

In this activity, learners build a 1:140 "scale model" of NASA's X-33 Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) Technology Demonstrator, and investigate how the model dimensions compare to the real vehicle.

In this indoor or outdoor water activity, learners pour water from small cups to large cups and containers. In doing so, they discover water takes the shape of its container.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the water cycle using movement, sound, and props to aid in comprehension.

In this four-part activity, learners will discover the exciting world of light--the most important form of energy in our world--and be able to identify and describe different types of light.

In this activity, learners discover how NASA engineers develop experimental aircraft.

In this laboratory experiment, learners explore how effectively different sunscreens protect yeast cells from damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate organisms that live along the ocean's rocky coast.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore model planets (that they or an educator will create), using methods NASA scientists use to explore our Solar System.

In this activity (on page 2), learners create a submarine using a plastic cup. This is a fun way to learn about buoyancy and density.

In this data analysis activity, learners quantify the abundance and distribution of sea scallops in and adjacent to the Mid-Atlantic closed areas.
