This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War) is a full inquiry investigation into tug-of-war physics. Groups of learners will test two tug-of-war strategies.

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

In this plant science activity, learners conduct four experiments to observe how plants respond to sunlight and gravity.

In this activity (page 23 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to determine how the size and mass of a projectile affects the area and the volume of an impact crater.

In this lab, learners experience how dolphins and other echolocating animals use their senses to locate and identify objects without using their sense of sight.

In this indepth hands-on activity, learners build a structure that allows them to observe the growth of roots and the correlation between root growth and stem extension.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to investigate the effect of elevated levels on CO2 on plant growth.

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this experiment, learners discover how an airfoil creates lift. Learners use simple materials to build an airfoil and test it at different angles to investigate Bernoulli's principle.

In this activity, learners explore how spring scales work and how they are used for non-exact weight measurement.

In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

In this experiment, learners investigate how the size of a wing affects lift. Learners count the number of pennies an egg crate plane wing can hold until the plane will no longer fly.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have met the challenge of keeping foods, liquids, and other items cool.
