In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will explore how static electricity affects surrounding objects.

In this activity, learners follow simple directions to explore and create platonic solids.

In this activity, learners will test soil content using their sample, some water and a container that seals.

In this activity, learners create a toy that demonstrates the First Law of Thermodynamics or the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Learners construct and launch paper helicopters.

This activity shows you how to make a mold terrarium using a jar and leftover food.

In this activity, learners will explore the physics of liquids and gas by playing with both! Learners of any age use their own breath to move drops of water across a smooth wax paper surface.

Build a glider that uses the same physics as a curve ball, for less than a dime.

In this activity (page 7 of pdf), learners research tide pool ecosystems, and then create brochures that "advertise" these environments.

In this simulation, learners explore how ocean currents spread all kinds of pollution—including oil spills, sewage, pesticides and factory waste—far beyond where the pollution originates.

This is an activity about motion, power, air and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Use geometry, a ruler, and a steady hand to create these amazing unfurling paper folds!

Learners build a model of a pollution control device--a cyclone. A cyclone works by whirling the polluted air in a circle and accumulating particles on the edges of the container.

In this chemistry activity, learners observe a combustion reaction and deduce the components necessary for the reaction to occur.

In this math lesson, learners play a game to identify the properties of prime, composite, abundant, deficient and perfect numbers.

Learners model the processes that formed some of Earth's largest mountain ranges: the Himalayas, the Andes, and the Alps.

This is a demonstration you can use to show learners how valves and pumps work in concert to move blood through the circulatory system.

In this art-related activity, learners make a coin rubbing—a process similar to what archeologists may do with ancient artifacts. This activity can be used in connection with a history or art lesson.

In this activity, learners construct a paper glider to experiment with aerodynamic forces.

In this activity, learners will see how UV light affects colors over time by making their own sunprint on construction paper.
