This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Doghouse Design) is a full inquiry investigation into absorption and reflection of radiant energy.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

In this activity, learners design a bungee jump for an egg using nylon stockings.

In this activity, learners make an equatorial sundial, which is simple to construct and teaches fundamental astronomical concepts. Learners use the provided template and a straw to build the sundial.

In this activity, learners explore how anemometers work to record wind speeds and how the equipment has undergone engineering adaptations over time.

In this activity learners will build structures out of blocks and then roll balls to try to knock them down.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

In this computer science activity about finite-state automaton (on page 45 of the PDF), learners use a map and choose various pathways to find Treasure Island.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

In this activity, learners are challenged, using everyday objects, to create simple machines to complete specific tasks.

In this technology activity, learners explore digital imaging and pixels. Learners "transmit" an image to a partner by creating an image on grid paper.

In this activity, learners will learn how to knit using only their hands. Learners will explore patterns and fabrication as well as develop fine motor skills and patience through this activity.

In this activity, learners build a model roller coaster to help the Mummy entertain the Atom's Family monsters. Learners assemble the roller coaster between two chairs using vinyl ceiling molding.

In this activity, learners discover the principles of edible glass by making a supersaturated sugar solution.

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.

In this 7-10 day investigation, learners develop an understanding of waves and tides and their motion through discussion, demonstration, and hands-on activities.

In this activity, challenge learners to design a roller coaster ride for a marble using cardboard and other simple materials.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Stained Glass Activity) about nanotechnology making its way into everyday products, such as sunscreen, and how effective these invisible particl

In this activity, learners make or use pre-made clay beams to scale and proportion. Specifically, they discover that when you scale up proportionally (i.e.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.
