This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into mapping the underground “plumbing” of geysers.

Learners build a pendulum from a yo-yo, and then design their own experiment to determine what affects the pendulum's period of swing.

Learners build a wind turbine and test it to see how much energy is created.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

In this activity, learners investigate the movement of water into and out of a polymer. Learners test the diffusion of water through gummy bears, which are made of sugar and gelatin (a polymer).

What causes frost to form on the outside of a cold container? In this activity, learners discover that liquid water can change states and freeze to become ice.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a pinball-like game where a kick stick hits a ping pong ball into a target that buzzes.

In this two-part outdoor activity, learners conduct a population census of squirting clams on a beach or mudflat, and investigate the clams' natural history.

In this design challenge activity, learners modify a cup so it can carry a marble down a zip line and also drop it onto a target.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this science trick, learners get an egg to stand-up on its long-axis vertical to a table's top.

In this health and genetics activity, learners determine whether tasting the bitter compound PTC (phenylthiocarbamide) influences which vegetables a person likes.

In this activity, learners model hot spot island formation, orientation and progression with condiments.

In this two-part activity, learners use everyday materials to visualize one mole of gas or 22.4 liters of gas. The first activity involves sublimating dry ice in large garbage bag.

In this activity about depth perception, learners create an optical illusion in a shoe box.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Colorblind Dogs) is a full inquiry investigation into dogs' ability (or inability) to see color.

In this optics activity, learners discover how they can make glass objects "disappear." Learners submerge glass objects like stirring rods into a beaker of Wesson™ oil to explore how the principles of

In this engineering activity, learners design their own board games.

In this activity, learners discover a brain process called habituation.
