Shake and Match
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a hearing based memory game that they can share with friends.
Be A Pasta Food Scientist
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.
Active Graphs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners track their movements with jumping and leaping graphs.
Finding Colors
Source Institutions
In this chemistry challenge, learners combine acids and bases in a universal indicator to create five different colors.
The Four-Square Quilt
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners arrange triangles together to make patterns to create paper quilts. Learners experiment with arranging the triangles in different ways to make various designs.
The Watershed Connection
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.
Boomerang
Source Institutions
Everybody loves boomerangs! In this activity about force and motion, the learners will experiment with boomerangs and explore how they work. This is a great activity to get learners up and moving.
Paper Mache Dinosaurs
Source Institutions
In this activity (located on page 6 of PDF), learners observe and reproduce the distinctive physical features (i.e. plates, sharp spikes, long necks, deep jaws, claws) of their favorite dinosaurs.
Ladybug Spots
Source Institutions
In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.
Carrying Charges: Testing for Conductivity
Source Institutions
Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).
Pop Can "Hero Engine"
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.
Low-Tech Water Filter for High-Impact Clean
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.
Build a Giant Puzzle!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.
Levers at Play
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners consider how a simple machine, a lever, turns a small push or pull (a small force) into a larger--or stronger--push or pull (a larger force).
Fuzzy Worms
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the concepts of natural selection and observable traits in a game that can be played at home.
Swirling Milk
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners prepare two petri dishes, one filled with water and one filled with milk.
Exploring Science Practices: Early Explorations
Source Institutions
This activity gives caregivers and their children an opportunity to practice scientific ways of thinking that are developmentally appropriate for early learners.
Exploring Ultraviolet (UV) light from the Sun
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.
Water Cycle in a Bag
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.
Bubbles: Using Controls
In this experiment, learners use JOY liquid detergent and glycerin to make the largest bubble they can that lasts 15 seconds.
