In this full inquiry activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Kinetic Sculpture Challenge Activity), groups of learners will make predictions about which feature of a pendulum (mass, length,

Exponga estos pósteres en el salón o déjelos donde los chicos los puedan explorar. Los chicos buscan las respuestas en libros de consulta o en línea.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.

Learners will do an experiment to determine which type of paper is strongest while focusing on variables and collecting data.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

In this activity about the solar system, learners use various light sources to examine ice with different components to understand how NASA studies planets and moons from space.

In this activity, learners explore the devices used over time to measure changes in temperature.

In this activity, learners construct hand-held altitude trackers. The device is a sighting tube with a marked water level that permits measurement of the inclination of the tube.

In this activity, learners apply Ohm’s Law to construct voltage divider circuits. Learners discover how to read resistor codes and calculate resistor values.

In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers use scales and measures when designing a manufacturing process to ensure that final products are uniform in weight or count.

In this activity learners will build roller coasters and test them using small balls or marbles.

In this fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity, learners construct a model of our place in the Milky Way Galaxy and the distribution of stars, with a quarter and some birdseed.

This fun hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore models of the Milky Way and other galaxies to get a sense of relative distances to other galaxies.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, volume, density, and bounce height.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

In this activity, learners will build a bee hotel for pollinators. Learners will explore building and ecology through this activity.

In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.
