In this activity, learners identify different classes of matter based on physical properties.

En esta actividad, Mateo y Cientina descubren una sustancia nueva y extraña que se llama "Oobleck". En su experimento ven que Oobleck tiene propiedades de sólidos y líquidos.

In this activity (pages 42-49), learners discover the methods and challenges of building nanoscale structures with macroscale equipment.

In this activity, learners will build an air cannon out of simple materials you can find around the house. Although air is invisible to the eye, it is not by any means empty space!

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

Learners place cut flowers in colored water and observe how the flowers change. The flowers absorb the water through the stem and leaves.

This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Gecko Feet Activity) about the forces of gravity and surface tension and how their behavior is influenced by size.

In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.

In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate air has weight by comparing an inflated balloon to a deflated one.

In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

In this weather activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate the changes in atmospheric pressure by constructing their own barometer.

In this activity, learners conduct a controlled experiment to examine how many Mentos are needed to make the tallest possible soda geyser.

Make a quick and easy filter from household materials. A filter will catch any solids suspended in a liquid and filter them out. By using a filter, learners can discover amazing things.

In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the carbon cycle using movement and props to aid in comprehension.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this activity, learners conduct a controlled experiment to examine which brand of soda makes the best (highest) soda geyser.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

This hands-on activity demonstrates how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this activity (pages 32-41), learners learn how the atomic and molecular arrangement of matter are related to physical properties.
