In this chemistry activity, learners discover that the weight of the product of combustion is greater than that of the starting material.

In this activity about heart health (on page 27 of the PDF), learners measure their heart rates after a variety of physical activities and compare the results with their resting heart rates, and with

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this environmental health activity, learners grow and observe bread mold and other kinds of common fungi over the course of 3-7 days.

In this activity about sleep rhythms (on page 25 of the PDF), learners will investigate how changing the time they go to bed impacts their own sleep patterns.

In this activity related to microbes, learners use water drops and hand lenses to begin the exploration of magnification. This activity also introduces learners to the microscope.

In this activity, learners explore how spring scales work and how they are used for non-exact weight measurement.

In this activity, learners practice the steps involved in a scientific investigation while learning why ice formations on land (not those on water) will cause a rise in sea level upon melting.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.

In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.

In this activity, learners explore the difference between compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs and traditional incandescent bulbs.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

In this activity, learners will use cereal to conduct an experiment and investigate how decreased bone density is related to increased risk of bone fracture.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Learners add calcium chloride to a baking soda solution and observe an increase in temperature along with the production of a gas and a white precipitate. These are all signs of a chemical reaction.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick) is a full inquiry investigation into transfer of motion.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners compare bacteria growth on two petri dishes containing nutrient agar: one that has been touched by a finger washed only with water and one that has been tou

Learners mix vinegar and baking soda to produce a gas. With the addition of a bit of liquid soap, the gas becomes trapped in measurable bubbles.

What is the optimal environment for hatching brine shrimp? Using a scaffold, learners design and conduct experiments testing the effect of a single abiotic factor on brine shrimp cyst hatch rate.
