In this activity, learners separate the components of Gatorade using a home-made affinity column.

In this hands-on activity, learners will become familiar with the special adaptations of rainforest plants and discover the conditions needed for tropical trees to survive along with what can impinge

In this activity, learners explore how civil engineers solved the challenge of moving water via irrigation.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how brakes can stop or slow mechanical motion.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners explore how we see color.

Cool off in the heat with this project! Learners use simple materials to build a fan that runs on a motor.

In this activity, two groups of learners create two separate landform models out of clay (mountains and valleys).

In this hands-on activity, learners investigate the functional design of leaves on a tree.

In this activity related to Archimedes' Principle, learners use water displacement to compare the volume of an expanded gummy bear with a gummy bear in its original condition.

In this technology activity, learners build simple circuits, design soft circuits using conductive thread, and then sew switch-activated circuits.

In this activity (on page 7), learners explore the meaning of a "carbon sink." Using simple props, learners and/or an educator demonstrate how plants act as carbon sinks and how greenhouse gases cause

In this activity, learners listen to songs and decode hidden messages based on the same principle as a modem. As a final challenge, learners decode the binary messages in a music video.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers work in a team to solve problems.

In this experiment, learners will conduct chemical and physical tests to identify mystery substances.

In this activity, learners explore how rescue devices are designed to aid professionals during emergency situations.

In this activity, learners examine antibodies and antibody recognition using a model.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has impacted the manufacturing of canoes over time, including the development of new, durable, and lighter materials.

In this activity, learners discover that there is space between molecules even in a cup "full" of water. They first fill a cup with marbles, and then add sand to fill the gaps between the marbles.

In this activity, learners explore the history of making objects from glass and artistry of Dale Chihuly.
