En esta actividad, Mateo y Cientina descubren una sustancia nueva y extraña que se llama "Oobleck". En su experimento ven que Oobleck tiene propiedades de sólidos y líquidos.

In this activity, learners will build an air cannon out of simple materials you can find around the house. Although air is invisible to the eye, it is not by any means empty space!

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

In this physics activity, learners experiment with soap bubbles to see what variables affect their size. They explore how soap film and bubbles always seek the smallest surface area possible.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

In this online activity about heart disease, learners will, with the virtual help of an actual surgeon, watch a virtual bypass surgery.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Get Cooking With Chemistry), learners conduct an experiment to get an idea of how cheese is made.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners experiment with a bucket, stretchy fabric, marbles, and weights to discover some basics about gravity.

In this introductory activity and demonstration, learners are introduced to the concept that different substances react chemically in characteristic ways.

In this design challenge activity, learners explore the concept of biomimicry by using a natural organism's special features to design a new human object.
