Science Friday

Learners explore the variables that affect the properties of ice and the places where different types of ice are found.

In this activity, learners explore how an electromagnet works by making a simple one. Using this knowledge, learners design a diagram to make a working speaker using household materials.

In this activity, learners use household materials to investigate and explore their ability to smell an odor.

In this activity, learners watch a video to learn about a couple who built a home out of shipping containers in Brooklyn, New York.

In this activity, learners investigate carbon sequestration by creating a carbonated beverage out of apple juice and dry ice.

Learners create a tool to measure how well they grip a wet object when their fingers are smooth versus wrinkly. Are smooth or wrinkly fingers better at holding on to the object?

In this activity, learners conduct a series of hands-on experiments that demonstrate how the working of plants' veins, known as capillary action, enables water to travel throughout the length of a pla

In this activity, learners examine how colored lenses act like filters and absorb all colors of light except for the color of the lenses.

In this activity, learners perform an experiment to find out what determines a flower's color.

In this activity, learners use aluminum trays and wooden blocks to form stream tables to investigate river formations in two different landscape scenarios.
