In this activity, learners take core samples of candy bars with a straw and carefully observe & excavate their sample, modeled after what the NASA Perseverance rover will do on Mars.

Learners use simple materials to construct a model the Big Dipper. Learners hang the model from a doorway or ceiling and look up at it to see the constellation as seen from Earth.

In this activity, learners use plastic water bottles, wood, and water to build an inexpensive and portable tool to demonstrate one atmosphere of pressure at sea level.

In this activity, learners simulate a multistage rocket launch using party balloons, fishing line, straws, and a plastic cup.

In this activity, learners create their own icons for a forecast-at-a-glance poster for their classroom/learning space.

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore how to change the direction of water flow. Learners make puddles in dirt or use existing puddles and sticks to make water flow.

In this activity about color, learners get to explore the process of chromatography. Right before their eyes, they can watch ordinary green and black ink turn into a literal rainbow of colors.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of magnetic fields by inserting a small, strong magnet into a sphere.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

In this activity, learners use sand and ice cubes to create a model of permafrost and the effects of the ice melting through the surface.

In this geology activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners explore how carbonic acid can slowly dissolve limestone and form caves.

Learners explore how the attractive forces between water molecules create surface tension and allow certain objects to float on the surface of water.

In this activity about combustion and energy, learners observe a burning candle in a sealed jar and the burning of white sugar.

In this activity, young learners will model land and water on the Earth's surface to make a unique piece of "Earth Art." Activity includes materials list, step-by-step instructions, STEM connections a

In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

Learners build a model of the planets in the solar system. In their model, the planets are spaced in their relative distance from the Sun.

In this sunny day, outdoor activity, learners observe changes in shadows over time. The activity also helps to develop a sense of the Earth's motion.

This is a fun activity about the power of the Sun and the importance of using sunscreen to protect your sensitive skin from its rays.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons and anatomy. Learners make observations about a T. rex skeleton diagram and then measure the skeleton length and width.

Some bugs can walk on the surface of a lake, stream, river, pond or ocean.
