In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.

In this activity, learners cut out and fold their own collapsible origami starshade, an invention that shields a telescope's camera lens from the light of a distant star so that NASA scientists can ex

Learners use simple materials to construct a model the Big Dipper. Learners hang the model from a doorway or ceiling and look up at it to see the constellation as seen from Earth.

In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).

In this activity, learners simulate a multistage rocket launch using party balloons, fishing line, straws, and a plastic cup.

In this activity, learners explore how eating unhealthy food can damage a heart and arteries.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners experiment with a bucket, stretchy fabric, marbles, and weights to discover some basics about gravity.

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 activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

This activity (on pages 24-29) combines science and art to introduce learners to how different animal pollinators spread pollen from one plant to another, and how certain shapes, colors, and smells of

In this activity, learners build their own construction cranes using tongue depressors and pushpins.

Our bodies defend themselves in many different ways to prevent us from getting sick.

In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

In this activity, learners explore how molecules must fit together, like a lock and key, in order to identify each other and initiate a new function as a combined unit.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.

Learners make a mobile model of a carbon atom using clay, wire, and pipe cleaners.

En esta actividad, Mateo y Cientina enseñan a usar modelos para ver las causas de las fases lunares.

In this activity (on pages 20-23 of PDF), learners build a model of a power plant using simple materials.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of magnetic fields by inserting a small, strong magnet into a sphere.

In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.
