Inkjet Printer
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate how inkjet printers produce tiny, precise drops of ink.

Membrane Permeability with Beets
Source Institutions
In this lab exercise, learners explore diffusion, cell membranes and particle size using beets and three alcohols.

Weather Stations: Temperature and Pressure
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover the relationship between temperature and pressure in the lower atmospheres of Jupiter and Earth.

Good Vibrations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners experiment with their voices and noisemakers to understand the connections between vibrations and the sounds created by those vibrations.

Water Underground
Source Institutions
Many people get water from a source deep underground, called groundwater.

Acids & Bases
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners test the pH of safe liquids available at home by creating a pH indicator from mashed blueberries.

Black Holes: No Escape
Source Institutions
This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners experiment with marbles and weights to discover some basics about gravity and black holes.

Invisible Sunblock
Source Institutions
This is a hands-on activity exploring how nanoscale particles are used in mineral sunblocks to increase their transparency.

Magic Sand: Nanosurfaces
Source Institutions
This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

Mars from Above: Viewing Volcanoes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create volcanoes like those they have examined on Earth and Mars through images taken by spacecraft.

Make a Lake
Source Institutions
Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

Exploring Fabrication: Gummy Capsules
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make self-assembled polymer spheres.

Circuit Sense
Source Institutions
In this activity about electricity, learners identify closed and open circuits. First, learners examine and label diagrams of open and closed circuits.

Reflecting on Diffraction
Source Institutions
With a laser pointer and some household items, learners can create their own laser light show. They can explore diffuse reflection, refraction and diffraction.

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