Exploring Materials: Graphene
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.
Exploring Structures: DNA
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a necklace of wheat germ DNA. Learners add alcohol to wheat germ so that the DNA clumps together.
Exploring Forces: Gravity
Source Institutions
In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.
Exploring Earth: Temperature Mapping
Source Institutions
This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.
Balloon Rockets
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will create a model rocket out of an inflated balloon attached to a straw on a taught string.
Flinker
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a foam packing peanut "flink"--neither float away nor sink--in water. Learners experiment with materials to make a Flinker that "flinks" for 10 seconds.
