In this physics related activity which requires adult supervision, learners make their own powerful water rocket and, with it, explore Newton's Third Law of Motion.

In this activity on page 6 of the PDF (Get Cooking With Chemistry), learners investigate yeast. Learners prepare an experiment to observe what yeast cells like to eat.

In this activity about weights and balances, learners create their own balance using paper cups. Then, learners explore how to compare the relative mass of objects.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners use simple materials to investigate evaporation. How can the evaporation of water on a hot day be used to cool an object? Find out the experimental way!

Learners test two jars containing hot water, one covered with plastic and one open, for changes in temperature.

In this physics activity, learners will build their own parachutes out of tissue paper. They will explore the effects of weight, height, and design on the parachutes' speed and stability.

In this activity about how the body regulates blood pressure (page 117 of the PDF), learners make and compare measurements of heart rate and blood pressure from three body positions: sitting, standing

In this archaeology activity, learners make observations and conduct an experiment to demonstrate the effect saltwater has on artifacts.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

In this activity about center of gravity (page 23 of PDF), learners investigate how the body adjusts to the force of gravity to remain balanced.

En esta actividad la tira cómica muestra a los participantes como pueden hacer un experimento simple para ver cuales líquidos son ácidos.

In this life science activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners explore the carbon cycle by mixing yeast, sugar and water.

In this activity, learners will explore how the human brain interprets environmental stimuli.

In this activity, learners investigate convection by using food coloring and water of different temperatures.

In this activity, learners cut wells in JELL-O© and load the wells with different detergent solutions.

In this activity, learners make acid/base indicator paper, place the indicator paper on an anthill, disturb a bunch of ants, and then observe what happens!

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners use three types of cheesy snacks--cheese balls, cheese puffs, and Cheetos--to learn about polymers.

In this activity, leaners will observe the process of natural selection on a population of birds called 'Springbeaks' over four seasons of breeding on an isolated environment called 'Clippy Island.' L
