In this activity (page 26 of the PDF), learners make observations, formulate hypotheses and design a controlled experiment, based on the reaction of carbon dioxide with calcium hydroxide.

In this activity (pages 5-7), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

In this activity, learners identify different classes of matter based on physical properties.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

In this activity, learners make a model of a pollution spill that occurred at Bangs Lake in Mississippi and measure water quality parameters in their model.

In this introductory activity and demonstration, learners are introduced to the concept that different substances react chemically in characteristic ways.

Each learner chews a piece of gum until it loses its flavor, and then leaves the gum to dry for several days.

In this chemistry activity, learners use common chemicals to examine reactions that occur between two aqueous solutions.

In this chemistry activity, learners make indicator solution from red cabbage. Then, learners test everyday foods and household substances using the cabbage juice indicator.

In this activity about global climate change, learners will conduct an experiment and collect data to compare the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in four different sources of gases.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

This activity introduces learners to the structure and properties of carbon nanotubes.

In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.

This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

In this chemistry activity, learners use common chemicals and metals to explore single replacement reactions.

Learners identify an unknown liquid by comparing its behavior to known liquids. Learners drop liquids onto different surfaces and see how the liquids behave.

In this experiment, learners use JOY liquid detergent and glycerin to make the largest bubble they can that lasts 15 seconds.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Lift Off), learners will use the ever-popular soda geyser experiment to test the reactivity of the various sugar candies or mints.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.
