In this math activity, learners play a game and identify patterns with fun moves and sounds. Discover how dancing and signing involve patterns.

In this activity, learners grow germs collected from their hands and other objects. They cultivate the germs on a growth medium (such as slices of grapefruit or processed cheese) for a week.

In this activity, learners use various dress-up or costume pieces to play a game of change.

In this math activity, learners use problem solving skills to find a middle seat for Mary at the movies. Learners practice dividing numbers and identifying the middle of a quantity.

In this design challenge activity, learners add a jet-propulsion system (i.e. a balloon) to a blimp so it flies straight and far under its own power.

In this engineering activity, young learners investigate multi-level buildings.

In this design challenge activity, learners add headphones to a previously built instrument (see "Build a Band" activity) to make it easier to hear.

Learners take a field trip along a local body of water and conduct a visual survey to discover information about local land use and water quality.

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.

In this math lesson, learners explore transformations and quadratic functions through toothpick patterns.

In this activity, learners are introduced to tree rings by examining a cross section of a tree, also known as a “tree cookie.” They discover how tree age can be determined by studying the rings and ho

In this activity, learners investigate passive solar building design with a focus solely on heating.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from

In this activity, learners make water-walking critters using thin wire, and then test how many paper clips these critters can carry without sinking.

In this activity, learners compare the number of letters in the names of the people in their families or group of friends.

In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

In this activity with several mini experiments, learners explore the chemistry that helps scientists learn about the environment and how they can help save it.

In this very hands-on lesson, learners will investigate dendrochronology (the study of tree rings to answer ecological questions about the recent past) and come up with conclusions as to what possible
