In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the carbon cycle using movement and props to aid in comprehension.

In this activity (17th on the page), learners investigate why you cannot see colors in dim light.

Learners observe a simple balloon model of an electrostatic precipitator. These devices are used for pollutant recovery in cleaning industrial air pollution.

In this matching activity (3rd activity on the page), learners use their sense of smell to match pairs of opaque containers filled with various smelly items like orange peel, roses, or moth balls.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

In this activity, learners make an optical illusion toy from the 1800s to explore persistence of vision.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity), learners will model how caves are formed by placing one piece of chalk in a cup of vinegar and another piece in a cup of water, then

In this outdoor simulation game, learners search for pretend animals called "sticklers" to determine and map where they live (habitat) and how spread out they are in that area (distribution).

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

This hands-on activity demonstrates how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this challenge, learners make a helium balloon hover in one spot and then move it through an obstacle course using air currents.

This Exploratorium activity explores size and scale. Through four levels of screen sizes, learners can sort out objects of different sizes.

In this creative outdoor activity, learners invent populations of make-believe organisms and then investigate real populations living in the activity site.

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

In this quick activity, learners observe how wind creates ocean currents.

In this activity, learners design a crushing test and discover that identifying and controlling the variables may be difficult.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the rule "likes dissolve likes" by combining three, immiscible liquids to create a colorful density column.

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.
