In this activity, learners will see how UV light affects colors over time by making their own sunprint on construction paper.

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

This activity demonstrates liquefaction, the process by which some soils lose their solidity during an earthquake.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.

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

In this activity, learners model hot spot island formation, orientation and progression with condiments.

Learners mix a solution of luminol with hydrogen peroxide to produce a reaction that gives off blue light.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners investigate the solubility of gas in water at different temperatures. This experiment will help learners determine if temperature affects solubility.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this activity (on page 12 of the PDF), learners make a sundial (shadow clock) appropriate for their geographic location in the northern hemisphere and use it to tell time.

In this activity, learners explore how anemometers work to record wind speeds and how the equipment has undergone engineering adaptations over time.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design, build and test a birdhouse that will stay cool in the sun.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

This activity uses a special paper that can create images with exposure to the Sun. Collect objects of different shapes and sizes and use them to make interesting patterns on your sun print.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners illustrate the effect of the weight of air over our heads.

In this outdoor, beach activity, learners use tennis balls, water balloons and other simple devices to investigate the movement of waves and currents off a sandy beach.

In this two-part activity, learners investigate buoyancy, density and surface area as well as biodiversity and the relationship between the structure and function of organisms.

In this activity, learners separate materials based on their special properties to mimic the way recyclables are sorted at recycling centers.
