In this activity, learners will explore engineering concepts to construct a blanket fort using materials sourced from home.

In this activity, learners will explore light with reflective surfaces. Learners will make predictions and share their observations as they experiment with directing a beam of light.

In this simulation activity, learners observe what can happen when ocean waves churn up water and oil from an oil spill.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

In this activity, learners create a kind of balance device using a wire coat hanger, some string, and paper cups.

This simple but open-ended math game introduces basic probability concepts using coins and dice. Players roll the dice and collect coins to match the number rolled.

This lesson (on pages 15-24 of PDF) explores how sound is caused by vibrating objects. It explains that we hear by feeling vibrations passing through the air.

In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.

In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate air has weight by comparing an inflated balloon to a deflated one.

In this activity (11th activity on the page), learners use pennies to test their hearing acuity.

In this health activity, learners create a device so that they not only feel their heartbeat, but also see it, using a straw and some clay.

In this activity, learners investigate static electricity using everyday objects at four different stations.

In this activity, learners use chocolate to explore how the Sun transfers heat to the Earth through radiation.

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this activity, learners model the flow of energy from the sun as it enters a photovoltaic cell, moves along a wire and powers a load.

Why should we wear masks? Do masks work? Do some masks work better than others? Learners find out in this activity.

In this chemistry challenge, learners combine acids and bases in a universal indicator to create five different colors.

In this activity, learners will investigate the part of soil. Explore how clay, silt, and sand make up the dirt in your background. Activity includes step-by-step instructions and extension ideas.

In this activity, learners explore density and buoyancy as they design and construct rafts.

This activity demonstrates the importance of wearing a helmet to protect the brain. An egg is used to symbolize a head with the shell as the skull and the inside of the egg as the brain.
