In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity from Episode 106: My Mushy Banana, learners explore the effects of decay by comparing and contrasting something (an old pumpkin) that's decayed with the same thi

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their height in pennies.

This is an activity about reaction times. Just how quickly must an NHL goalie respond to save a shot, and how does your reaction time compare?

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to design a car using only 3 straws, 4 Lifesavers™, 1 piece of paper, 2 paper clips, tape, and scissors.

In this activity, learners use what they know about probability to figure out what is in a mystery bag. Learners analyze data to guess how many of each color crayons are in the bag.

In this activity (on page 2), one person "programs" the other like a robot to move through a space, trying to get them to avoid obstacles and reach a goal.

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their weight in pennies.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

In this activity, learners investigate the basic crystal structures that metal atoms form.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

In this exploratory activity, learners experiment, observe and determine how various toys change from one form of energy to another.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

Have fun with additive mixing! Observe what happens when the three primary colors of light--red, green and blue--are mixed together, resulting in white light.

En esta actividad, los aprendices harán un terrario usando materiales simples.

Learners assemble a figure from a nylon stocking or sock stuffed with soil and seeds. The ends of the nylons inside the jar absorb water, which feeds the grass seeds.

With a magnet, iron fillings, and a bottle, you can create a cool demonstration about magnetic lines of force: the fillings will arrange themselves within the magnet's magnetic field.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a tower that can support a tennis ball at least 18 inches off the ground while withstanding the wind from a fan.

In this activity, learners explore how composites work by creating and testing their own composite for an imaginary company.

In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.
