In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In this team design challenge (page 19-24 of PDF), learners "land" a model Lunar Rover in a model Landing Pod (both previously built in activities #3 and #4 in PDF).

Ocean acidification is a problem that humans will have to deal with as we release more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

In this activity related to the human circulatory system (on page 10 of the PDF), learners observe the dispersion of a drop of food coloring in water, draw conclusions about the movement of dissolved

In this activity, learners estimate risks associated with different events and compare their estimates to the real possibilities.

In this activity, learners will make their own slushies and learn some of the science behind how the process works.

Make a rattle-like musical instrument! Shake it, hit it, spin it any way you want to!

In this activity, learners investigate Scanning Probe Microscopes (SPM) and then work in teams using a pencil to explore and identify the shape of objects they cannot see, just as SPMs do at the nano

In this activity (located on pages 23-24 of the PDF), learners are introduced to structural engineering and encouraged to practice goal-oriented building.

In this activity, learners will design a protective package for an egg that will allow the egg to withstand a fall without cracking.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this activity, learners will build a simple electromagnet. They will test variables that would make the electromagnet stronger.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Extreme Sounds) is a full inquiry investigation into sound.

In this activity, learners experiment and observe how the color of materials that cover the Earth affects the amounts of sunlight our planet absorbs.

In this activity, learners will explore pendulum motion through scientific trials by using household items with different length strings.

Learners conduct an experiment to determine the rate at which two materials, sand and water, heat up and cool down.

In this lesson, learners develop a robot arm using common materials. Learners explore design, construction, and teamwork, as well as materials selection and use.

In this activity, learners will make their own prism and use a glass of water to separate sunlight into different colors.

In this activity on page 2 of the PDF (Get Cooking With Chemistry), learners conduct chemical tests on certain powders used in cooking.

Space telescopes can offer us better, clearer views of the universe (and of our own planet) than Earth-based telescopes can, but getting these large, delicate pieces of equipment into orbit is tricky.
