In this math activity, learners play a probability game and try to be the first to get to the end of the game board path .This activity guide contains a material list, black line masters for the game

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF), learners explore alternative uses of a simple paper cup, dubbed a "mystery item." Learners act as detectives and explore the properties and functions of th

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.

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.

Throw that fish back? A new generation of ethical anglers concerned about conserving resources is participating in "catch and release" fishing. How is this going?

In this oceanography and data collection activity, learners cast real time sea state conditions using buoys from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center.

In this ocean engineering activity, learners explore buoyancy and water displacement. Then, learners design models of deep sea divers that are neutrally buoyant.

In this invention challenge activity, learners create an indoor game for one or two people that gets you moving.

This event guide features three related explorations in which learners investigate the following science concepts: how you design and build a structure helps determine how strong it will be; different

This demonstration can be used to help learners visualize DNA by lysing (breaking open) bacterial cells on a slide and “stringing up” the DNA with a toothpick in less than one minute.

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

Learners complete a series of hands-on and investigative activities to explore cumulus clouds.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.

In this activity, learners cut a shape into two equal sized pieces and use their knowledge of geometry and space to prove that the two parts are equal.

In this activity (on pages 25-32 of PDF), learners make models of the inner ear out of pipe cleaners.

In this activity, learners use Starburst® candy to sort, classify, compare, and graph. Learners grab a handful of one-inch candy squares, sort them by color, graph the candy, and discuss the results.

In this math activity, learners play a game in which every roll can earn you counters, but if you roll the wrong number (6), you have to put everything back.

In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.
