Exploring Products: Nano Sand
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.

Guess My Number
Source Institutions
In this game, learners experience how computers divide a big problem into many smaller ones and how they use binary "yes"/"no" questions.

Salt 'n Lighter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that as the salinity of water increases, the density increases as well. Learners prove this by attempting to float fresh eggs in saltwater and freshwater.

Chromatography
Source Institutions
