In this activity, learners explore the etymology of dinosaur names.

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

In this math lesson, learners are introduced to proportional reasoning through modeling, sharing, and questioning techniques.

In this activity, learners will compare predicted and observed tides using data from The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA).

In this activity about center of gravity (page 23 of PDF), learners investigate how the body adjusts to the force of gravity to remain balanced.

This neuroscience activity introduces learners to how messages are sent and received by neurons. Learners use modeling clay and pipe cleaners to build model neurons.

Learners determine the surface area and volume of two identical boxes, and then figure out the dimensions of a cubical box with the same volume.

In this forensics activity, learners solve a mystery using “DNA” taken from the scene of the crime.

In this activity about computer programming, learners follow instructions in a variety of ways in order to successfully draw figures.

This is an outdoor activity designed to demonstrate evolution of feeding behavior in flocking, schooling or herding animals that maximizes allocation of food resources and enhances survival.

In this activity, learners use simple materials and basic tools to construct a special toy to explore pendulums. As the head of the toy bobs one way, the eyeballs bob the other way.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity, learners create their own archaeological profiles.

Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

In this activity, learners repeat patterns in two and three dimensions to create tessellations. This activity combines the creativity of an art project with the challenge of solving a puzzle.

This kinesthetic science demonstration introduces learners to four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

In this activity, learners investigate what happens when you build up static electricity on plastic balls.
