What-a-cycle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners act as water molecules and travel through parts of the water cycle to discover that it is more complex than just water moving from the ground to the atmosphere.
Slowing the Flow
Source Institutions
In this experiment, pairs of learners explore how cold water affects circulation. The mammalian diving reflex (MDR) slows circulation when the body is exposed to cold water.
Audio Memory
Source Institutions
In this interactive game, learners will test their memory of animal and insect sounds. Flip over cards, listen to the sound, and try to find the ones that match.
Bernoulli's Blowout
Source Institutions
In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites), learners will witness firsthand the effects of Bernoulli’s Principle by capturing a ping pong ball in the stream of air created b
Extra Bounce
Source Institutions
In this indoor or outdoor demonstration, use a large and small ball to illustrate conservation of energy and momentum.
Dollar Bill Grab
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, learners observe as two cola bottles and a dollar bill are arranged in a specific order: one bottle, upside down and filled with water, is placed on top of another bottle, with
Water, Water Everywhere
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners estimate how much water they think can be found in various locations on the Earth in all its states (solid, liquid, and gas) to discover the different water ratios in the Ea
Planetary Rescue Squad
Source Institutions
This is an online Flash game where learners can experiment with ballistics and how to compensate for the varying levels of gravity found on the planets of our Solar System.
Mix-N-Match Light
Source Institutions
This is an online exhibit about color perception. Learners set a random background color and then try to mix red, blue, and green light to match.
MarsBound!: Mission to the Red Planet
Source Institutions
MarsBound! is an engineering simulation activity in which learners use realistic techniques to plan a mission to Mars.
Frozen Sculptures
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.
So Many Parts
Source Institutions
In this online Flash game and spacewalk mission simulation, learners are challenged to repair parts of a space station while balancing their oxygen and fuel use carefully.
Servings and Choices
Source Institutions
In this nutrition activity (page 16 of PDF), learners document their individual eating habits and learn whether their eating patterns meet their needs.
Save Your Ears
Source Institutions
This game depicts a woman going through her day, faced with various loud sounds.
What is a "Model"?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners simulate the behavior of the atmosphere.
What's That Sound?
Source Institutions
This game plays a dozen different sounds, altered to simulate what they would sound like if you had hearing loss.
Measure Your Ability to See
Source Institutions
In this exercise (Activity #2 on page), learners test their distance vision to evaluate their overall eyesight.
Can You "See" Thermal Radiation?
Source Institutions
Use this hands-on activity to demonstrate infrared and thermal radiation.
Momentum Machine: Speed up your spin
Source Institutions
Spin in an office chair holding milk jugs! Plus, learn physics. Very fun (but stay safe) activity from the Exploratorium Science Snacks series.
Push: Water Ski Over the Sharks
Source Institutions
This is an online activity about acceleration. Learners will choose a speed and an angle in order to help a water-skier named Fonzie use a ramp to clear a shark.
