Dinosaur Skull and Body Length Predictions
Source Institutions
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.

Shaking It!
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

All Things Being Equal
Source Institutions
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.

Toss a Score!
Source Institutions
In this math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.
The Same Names
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners make and explore patterns using the letters in their names, a grid, and some colors.

Sea Turtle Populations
Source Institutions
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.

Fair Spinners
Source Institutions
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.
Pattern Families
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners sort patterns into similar "families" or groups that have the same pattern, but different symbols.

Forces at the Nanoscale: Nano Properties of Everyday Plants
Source Institutions
This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Change in Temperature: Exothermic Reaction
Source Institutions
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.

Can You "See" Thermal Radiation?
Source Institutions
Use this hands-on activity to demonstrate infrared and thermal radiation.

Sky Floater Challenge
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners make a balloon hover at eye level for five seconds, and then make it move by creating air currents.

Fruity-Glows: Pictures of Health on a Microarray Canvas
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 12), learners apply the concepts of pixilation and pointillism to the world of biomedical science.
Trees: Buds and Twigs
Source Institutions
In this hands-on nature activity, learners observe the emergence of leaves and flowers. Branches from trees and bushes are collected in the early spring, brought indoors, and placed in water.

Blowin' in the Wind
Source Institutions
In this environmental engineering activity, learners build windmills using everyday items. The first challenge is to build windmills that spin when placed in front of a fan.

Earth's Water: A Drop in Your Cup
Source Institutions
This creative lesson plan provides a visual way for learners to gain knowledge about the finite amount of fresh water on Earth and encourages the discussion of the various ways to conserve this resour

Puppet Power
Source Institutions
In this mechanical engineering activity, learners design shadow puppets with moving parts and use them to tell stories.

Genetics the Easy Way
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.

Amphipods: More than Mud
Source Institutions
In this data analysis and environmental science activity, learners examine the effects of pollution on amphipods using data from the Chesapeake Ecotox Research Program.

Balloon Bugs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make balloon models of disease-causing bacteria.
