In this chemistry activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners make an acid-base indicator using cabbage. Learners then explore how various subtances react with this indicator.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners set up a simple experiment to find out how sunscreen counteracts the effects of the sun.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Use this hands-on activity to demonstrate infrared and thermal radiation.

In this group activity, learners act out key stages of the "ocean carbon cycle" (also known as the "carbonate buffer system") through motions, rearranging blocks and team tasks.

Can you think of ways to collect and dispose of spilled oil without causing further harm to the environment?

This activity guide features three related explorations to help learners ages 3-6 investigate shadows via the following science concepts: A shadow is made when an object blocks the light; you can chan

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

In this activity, learners (at least three) work together to explore the effects of atmospheric pressure.

In this optics activity, learners explore color by examining color dots through colored water and the light of a flashlight.

Are there boxes, is this an illusion, or is this real life Q-bert? Illusions are always fun to build especially when you can build them.

This warm weather activity introduces learners to the impact trees have on blocking the sun's heat and reducing temperature on the Earth's surface.

In this optics activity, learners explore how light bends and affects what we see.

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

Learners use two mirrors to explore how images of images of images can repeat forever.

In this activity related to plant biotechnology, learners transform a strain of E. coli using green fluorescent protein from a bioluminescent jellies.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from lima bean bacteria. This experiment requires the use of a centrifuge (not included in cost of materials).

In this activity about engineering, nutrition, and physical activity, learners design and build a healthy bone model of a space explorer which is strong enough to withstand increasing amounts of weigh

By making models of light waves with paper, learners can understand why different colors appear in bubbles.

Did you know that some breakfast cereals are fortified with ferric phosphate, while others contain tiny pieces of reduced iron?
