This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick) is a full inquiry investigation into transfer of motion.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.

In this optics activity, learners use everyday materials to make a color wheel. When learners spin the wheel like a top, they will be surprised to see all the colors mixing together to appear white.

This perception trick focuses on conflicting information to the brain...instead of trying to see two images, you're trying to get a bright spot by overlapping the image you see through two tubes.

This simple hands-on activity demonstrates why the sky appears blue on a sunny day and red during sunrise and sunset.

This is a quick game about self-assembly (page 2 of PDF under Self-Assembly Activity). Like the molecules of DNA, learners will self-assemble into a pattern by following a simple set of rules.

In this optics activity, learners investigate afterimages.

In this activity, learners use earthworms as "unknown creatures" from the South American jungle to find out how animals use senses.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will--using nothing more than a coat hanger and some string--explore and understand sound energy and how it moves.

A group of learners simulates the spread of disease by trading slips of paper, one set of which has been treated with a baking soda solution.

Learners color and cut out a spiral-shaped snake. When they hang their snake over a radiator, the snake spins.

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 activity, learners explore sound by constructing a simple piano out of wood and craft sticks.

In this activity, learners will use their nose to sniff out hidden scents using extracts and cotton balls. Activity includes materials list, game instructions, STEM connections and more.
