In this activity, learners explore phosphorescence and how certain materials can absorb and store energy from a light source.

In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this inquiry-based lesson, learners measure the biomass of trees, calculate the carbon stored by the trees, and use this information to create recommendations about using trees for carbon sequestra

In this activity/demo about piezoelectricity, learners discover how some crystals produce electricity when squeezed.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

In this lesson, learners develop a robot arm using common materials. Learners explore design, construction, and teamwork, as well as materials selection and use.

In this three/four-day lesson, learners calculate perimeters and areas and draw the castle plan to scale.

This lab activity is about toxic substances like pesticides and their effects on biological systems. The activity starts with an introduction of how birds sequester calcium to make an egg.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this robotics activity, learners find ways to express emotions and feelings using only body movements, not facial expressions.

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this four-day lesson, learners identify three-dimensional forms in castle design, research different parts of the castle with a focus on their uses, and design and enlarge a banner for the great ha

Learners will build a lung model to understand how their lungs and diaphragm work to make them breathe.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls.

In this activity related to plant biotechnology, learners use the tissue culture process to rapidly produce clones (genetic copies) of a particular plant (cauliflower, rose cuttings, African violet le

In this activity, learners simulate the process of DNA fingerprinting by using electricity to separate colored dyes.
