In this activity about daily rhythms (on page 17 of the PDF), learners will explore circadian patterns in humans, animals and plants.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing their very own instruments using PVC pipes, soda bottles, and a straw.

This lesson focuses on two simple activities that younger learners can do to gain an appreciation of nanotechnology. First, learners measure their hands in nanometers.

In this investigation, learners explore the force known as buoyancy by placing various objects into water and observing how they behave (for example, which sink more quickly, which float, how much wat

In this activity, learners work in teams to construct and test fly drinking straw rockets. Learners explore how changing the rockets' fins affect flight distance.

Build your own version of a favorite carnival game, in which a marble races down a maze consisting of rows of nails.

In this activity about electricity, learners identify parallel and series circuits. First, learners examine and label diagrams of complete circuits.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 20 of PDF), learners investigate the structure of muscles by comparing yarn and cooked meat.

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

In this math lesson, learners identify the likelihood of an event by using a walk-on probability scale.

In this graphing exercise (page 2 of the pdf), learners compare their own height to the length of various sharks.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, size, and bounce height.

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.

In this math activity (Page 17 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "baseball" and analyze the results of the game.

Learners use their opponent's clues and a compass rose to find the hidden treasure on a map. Learners use problem solving and coordinate grid skills as they hunt for treasure.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.

In this math activity, learners play a number game to explore the relationships between numbers, combinations, and the concept of equivalency.

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

In this activity, learners explore geometry and spatial relationships as they figure out how to arrange tables for a party.

In this activity, learners build bridges using paper and explore how much weight each bridge design can support.
