In this challenge, learners make a helium balloon hover in one spot and then move it through an obstacle course using air currents.

In this activity, learners determine the elastic and plastic properties of different types of metal wires.

In this activity (pages 8-9), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this quick activity, learners observe how wind creates ocean currents.

In this activity, learners observe, explore and investigate vibrating instruments in everyday places and create music in unique ways.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this activity/demonstration, learners observe what happens when two ping pong balls are suspended in the air by a hair dryer. Use this activity to demonstrate how rain drops grow by coalescence.

In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the rule "likes dissolve likes" by combining three, immiscible liquids to create a colorful density column.

In this activity, learners model the flow of energy from the sun as it enters a photovoltaic cell, moves along a wire and powers a load.

In this activity, learners use aluminum trays and wooden blocks to form stream tables to investigate river formations in two different landscape scenarios.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

In this activity, learners predict whether a ball on Earth or a ball on the Moon bounces higher when dropped and why.

In this activity, learners will investigate the part of soil. Explore how clay, silt, and sand make up the dirt in your background. Activity includes step-by-step instructions and extension ideas.

In this activity, learners create a straw oboe to explore sound and pitch.

In this activity, learners explore density and buoyancy as they design and construct rafts.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.
