In this activity, learners discover that a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this activity (on page 8), learners model how marble statues and buildings are affected by acid rain.

In this activity, learners will test soil content using their sample, some water and a container that seals.

In this activity, learners will experiment with changing flower colors. Learners will investigate the effects of acids and bases on flower colors.

In this activity, learners use their sense of smell to explore the world on the nanoscale.

In this tabletop board game, players will represent a team of scientists and engineers sending a spacecraft on a mission to space.

In this activity on page 4 of the PDF (Water in Our World), learners conduct some quick and easy tests to determine the differences between water and other liquids that look very similar to water.

In this activity on page 15 of the PDF, discover how materials and physical forces behave differently at the nanoscale.

In this activity on page 6 of the PDF (Chemistry—It’s Elemental), learners explore some of the properties of copper using a few common household ingredients.

This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to construct a paper bridge that can support 100 pennies.

In "Chemistry is Colorful" learners explore different materials through paper chromatography.

This activity models some of the ways natural processes, such as erosion and sediment pollution, affect Earth’s landscape.

In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.

In this simple activity, learners discover how a mere piece of paper can be used to hold up the weight of a heavy book.

In this activity, learners use mirrors to write secret messages to a friend. Use this activity to explore letters, optics, and/or symmetry.

In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

In this activity, challenge learners to design a roller coaster ride for a marble using cardboard and other simple materials.

Students design and build their own parachutes in this hands-on engineering project.

In this activity, learners play a trick on their own brain to see if the brain can learn to ignore distracting input. Colors and words are used to play the visual trick, known as a Stroop Test.
