Fizzy Nano Challenge
Source Institutions
This lesson focuses on how materials behave differently as their surface area increases.
Incredible Shrinking Shapes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners get hands-on experience with ratios and scaling while making their own jewelry out of recycled plastic containers.
Scaling Cubes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore scale by using building cubes to see how changing the length, width, and height of a three-dimensional object affects its surface area and its volume.
Hanging Around
Learners investigate weight by building a spring scale. They observe and record how it responds to objects with different masses.
Exploring at the Nanoscale
Source Institutions
This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.
Cylinders and Scale
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.
Pea Brain!: Explorations in Estimation
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use two different techniques to estimate how many little things fit into one bigger thing.
