Copy Cats
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners use what they know about shapes to copy a friend's hidden picture. Learners create a design out of pattern blocks and then hide their picture behind a screen.
Guess My Rule
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play a guessing game to explore classification.
Needlework Designs
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners create symmetrical designs for paper models of special blouses known as huipiles.
Drag: Parachute from the Stratosphere
Source Institutions
This is an online game recreating the longest ever (at that point in time) freefall jump by Air Force Captain Joe Kittinger.
Spool Racer
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.
Self-Assembling Dessert Toppings
Source Institutions
This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Self-Assembly Activity) about self-assembly, the ability of molecules to assemble themselves according to certain rules.
Glow in the Dark
Source Institutions
Learners experiment to see which colors of light will cause a phosphorescent (glow-in-the-dark) material to glow.
Find My Card
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners find the answer to the question, "if you have a pile of 8 cards, and you remove half, then half again, how many times can you do this until you get to just one card?" This w
Toothpick Patterns
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners use toothpicks to build different triangles and squares and then use the toothpicks to build and solve some tricky shape puzzles.
Rubber Band Car
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a car that can travel at least four feet using rubber band power and use the design process to debug problems.
Shrinking Spot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners control the (apparent) size of a hole with their brain.
Condensation
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the process of condensation.
Exploring Products: Nano Fabrics
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized "whiskers" can protect clothing from stains.
Polarized Light Mosaic
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use transparent tape and polarizing material to create and project beautifully colored patterns reminiscent of abstract or geometric stained glass windows--no glass required
CD Spectrometer
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use a compact disc to make a spectrometer, an instrument used to measure properties of light.
Cardboard Sculptures
Source Institutions
Learners explore the endless possibilities of cardboard engineering in this open-ended STEAM activity. Practice being creative by building structures with no glue, only cardboard and scissors.
Decode the Barcode
Source Institutions
In this online activity, learners crack the special code imprinted on envelopes to help the U.S. Postal Service deliver the mail.
A Crayon Rock Cycle - Igneous
Source Institutions
This is part 3 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity. Before starting this section, learners must have completed part 1: sedimentary rock and part 2: metamorphic rocks.
Ionic Bonding Puzzle Lab
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create models of ionic compounds and observe the chemical formula of binary molecules they have created.
Send Secret Messages
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners write a secret message in "invisible ink" and then use chemistry to view the writing.
