In this math lesson, learners make estimates to analyze the number of apples per acre, and visualize the magnitude of one million.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 8 of PDF), learners estimate average daily baseline energy (Calorie) needs and energy needs for different levels of activity.

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into conductivity.

This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

In this activity, learners explore fractions as they help gators share pies.

This math challenge, played with two players or a whole group, engages your problem solving skills.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this nutrition activity (page 26 of PDF), learners consider the nutritional needs of people with specific dietary requirements, such as athletes, persons with diabetes and vegetarians, and create a

In this activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

Use this activity to build division and number sense into any snack time or whenever there is a limited set of things to share among a group: If we deal these out, could everyone get two pieces?

In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.

In this Cyberchase activity, have fun measuring volumes and enjoy a delicious shake.

In this activity about olfaction (7th activity on the page), learners use natural ingredients to concoct their own perfume.

In this activity, learners will estimate how many seeds are in a fruit or vegetable, then count to find out. The result: mix estimation with healthy eating.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.

Using a milk-based recipe, learners create "moo glue" which is basically white school-type glue. The "secret ingredient" in milk that helps make glue is a chemical called casein.

In this math lesson, learners identify and compare unit costs of given items. Learners use computation skills, problem solving and number sense to find the cost of an ounce of cereal.

In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.
