In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

In this series of exercises, learners predict the conditions necessary for bacterial growth, test their predictions and at the same time practice the aseptic techniques and safety procedures needed wh

In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) about the mixture of materials in bone and how they affect its strength.

In this activity (page 7 of PDF), learners will identify the general two-dimensional geometric shape of the uppermost cross section of an impact crater.

In this genetics meets math activity, learners take inventories of their own easily-observable genetic traits and compare those inventories with other learners in groups.

In this activity (26th on the page), learners construct an easy-to-build device and test motor learning.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners explore circadian rhythms by keeping track of their body temperature.

Learners build and investigate pendulums of different lengths. They discover that the longer the string of the pendulum, the longer the time it takes to swing.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides) is a full inquiry investigation into speed and motion and takes place at a water park.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Hockey) is a full inquiry investigation into how a hockey stick’s flex affects shooting power and accuracy.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners collect, categorize, weigh and analyze classroom trash and discuss ways that engineers have helped to reduce solid waste.

In this activity, learners create 3D geometric shapes using straws and pipe cleaners.

In this activity, learners will be introduced to biomass gasification and will generate their own biomass gases.

In this quick activity about predicting (located on page 2 of the PDF under Where's Nano?

In this activity, learners calculate the number of milliliters of water a nearby tree transpires per day.

In this chemistry activity, learners use the lowered freezing point of water to chill another mixture (ice cream) to the solid state.

On the first night, I saw 5 stars in the desert. On the second night, I saw 10… What do you think I saw on the third night? Combine arts and crafts, literacy, and math by making a counting book.

In this physical sciences activity, learners explore how passive solar design increases energy efficiency.
