Balloon Isometrics
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners will explore the concept of entropy. When learners stretch and unstretch a balloon, they will notice a change in temperature.

Clues About Clouds
Source Institutions
In this weather activity which requires adult supervision, learners will get a chance to make a cloud right here on Earth!

Rollback
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will make a can that will roll back after it has been rolled away to observe the interactions of kinetic and potential energy.

How Plants Grow
Source Institutions
In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

Rainbow Density Experiment
Source Institutions
In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In the News
Source Institutions
In this fun and imaginative writing assignment (page nine of the pdf), students will flex the creative side of their brains to learn more about the laws of motion and the scientific process.

Egg Drop
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will design a protective package for an egg that will allow the egg to withstand a fall without cracking.

Build an Electromagnet
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will build a simple electromagnet. They will test variables that would make the electromagnet stronger.

What Goes Up...
Source Institutions
In this activity about gravity (page eight of the pdf), learners will very simply explore how gravity affects objects using balls and toys.

Oh Boy Buoyancy
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners will explore the concept of buoyancy, especially as it relates to density.

Rice Handle
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners attempt to lift a jar full of rice using only a spoon.

Vibrant Cords
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how the voice works and feel the vibrations produced by vocal cords.

Words in Motion, Motion in Words
Source Institutions
In this art activity (page seven of the pdf), learners will use their creativity to make a "motion collage." Each student will be encouraged to draw a picture of something that moves to be a part of t

What's the Buzz
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners explore how sound is created by vibrations.

Big Wave
Source Institutions
This is an activity about waves. Using marbles, paper clips and rubber bands, learners explore how waves behave.

Two Lenses in One
Source Institutions
In this activity about light, learners explore how water can refract light and change the way they see things.

A Swell Activity with Beans
Source Institutions
In this combination chemistry and physics activity, learners explore water absorption in dried beans or peas and learn how this affects their physical properties.

Density Stacker
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the property of density.

Checking For Starch
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will observe a chemical change, specifically what happens to iodine when it is applied to ripe and unripe apples.

Solar Powered Cooking
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a solar oven. Learners witness the awesome power of the sun to make a yummy treat--a chocolate chip cookie!
