Learners model the ocean currents that carry hot water from the tropics to northern latitudes.

In this activity, learners create a map of a hidden surface using a "sounding stick" -- a technique similar to how underwater maps were once made.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.

In this fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity, learners construct a model of our place in the Milky Way Galaxy and the distribution of stars, with a quarter and some birdseed.

In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.

In this activity, learners create their own archaeological profiles.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

In this activity, learners create 3D geometric shapes using straws and pipe cleaners.

An estuary is a body of water that is created when freshwater from rivers and streams flows into the saltwater of an ocean.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this activity, learners create volcanoes like those they have examined on Earth and Mars through images taken by spacecraft.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this activity, learners investigate how geometry plays a role in perspective.

Build a house you can fit inside, using cardboard tubes.

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners imagine what would happen if our Sun were replaced with a black hole.

In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.
