In this activity, learners conduct a scientific investigation involving decomposition and discover that the life cycle of trash is affected by its organic or inorganic nature.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

In this activity, learners use Styrofoam to collect organisms from a pond, estuary or marine environment and then examine what they have caught with a microscope.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this activity that can be used as a lab or demonstration, learners use Lactaid® and lactose to demonstrate the concept of enzyme action.

In this optics activity, learners explore how they can make gelatin stop light, but not stop them from seeing fruit suspended within.

In this activity, learners overlap the three primary colors to see how all other colors are made.

In this activity (page 10), learners explore how molecules self-assemble according to forces of attraction and repulsion.

In this classic memory game (on pages 37-45 of PDF), learners turn over tiles to reveal images on the back.

We're told from a young age that we have 5 senses, but we have many more. One of which is our awareness of our own body part's orientation and position.

In this 7-10 day investigation, learners develop an understanding of waves and tides and their motion through discussion, demonstration, and hands-on activities.

In this activity, learners look at and touch marine animal skulls to compare them and think about what they eat.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into tree growth rates.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into biodiversity of a given habitat.

In this activity about olfaction (8th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors. Then they try to identify the smells when they are mixed together.
