In this activity, learners explore the forces at work in water. Learners experiment to find out what happens to pepper in water when they touch it with bar soap and liquid detergent.

In this activity, learners explore acid and bases as they create their own invisible ink out of baking soda and grape juice.

How does a green roof, or roof covered by plants, affect the temperature of the inside and outside of a building? Learners design and build houses to find out the answer.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners observe a chemical reaction that produces a colorful effect.

In this activity, learners will explore the dynamics of air pressure by using a candle, a cup, and a dish of water.

Learners build simple catapults and use them to launch cotton balls.

In this activity learners compare the bounciness of warm and cold racquetballs to see if temperature makes a difference in how well they bounce.

In this activity, which requires adult supervision, learners get to explore the awesome power of chemistry.

In this activity about electricity, learners explore what happens when you blow a fuse.

Learners investigate signs of a chemical reaction when they mix vinegar and baking soda. In addition to a gas being produced, learners also notice the temperature decreases.

Many germs spread by our hands, and often times, people don't wash their hands well enough to get rid of germs.

In this activity, learners will imagine the challenges and opportunities of asteroid mining.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

This activity provides instructions for building a mirrored tube--a smaller and simpler version of a submarine's periscope--that lets you see around corners and over walls.

In this activity about electricity and magnetism, learners examine what happens when a magnet exerts a force on a current-carrying wire.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to investigate how, in a one-celled organism such as a bacterium, the division of cells increases the number of cell

This activity (on pages 23-27) lets learners simulate the work of scientists who take core samples of Earth's rocky layers to determine geological history.

In this activity, learners will code an algorithm to make it through a maze.

In this activity, learners will take a step back and learn the history of the land they live on, and the people who used to live on it.
