In this 6-7 day investigation, learners begin with an introduction to seamounts that are present in the Gulf of Alaska.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.

Have you ever heard of a camera without a lens? In this activity, learners create a pinhole camera out of simple materials. They'll see the world in a whole new way: upside down and backwards!

In this activity, the learner asks yes-no questions to identify a secret object (similar to Twenty Questions). This game is easy to adapt for different ages and different kinds of contexts.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners make decoders to send and receive secret messages. Learners make the device out of two 8-ounce cups and two code strips.

Jugando a este juego, los chicos desarrollan habilidades de lógica, geometría, y visualización espacial. Los jugadores empiezan con una red de hexágonos vacía.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners play a game where zero can help them win--or make them lose! Learners roll the die and place a zero in the tens or ones place.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners play a simple game using 15 paper dragons (or any 15 objects). One of the 15 dragons is red. Learners try to make their opponent take the red piece.

In this robotics activity, learners drive a remote-controlled car through a course to learn the challenges faced while trying to operate a planetary rover.

In this activity, learners make a black box device that serves as an excellent analogy to Rutherford's famous experiment in which he deduced the existence of the atomic nucleus.

In this activity, learners design unique tiles and make repeating patterns to create tessellations. This activity combines the creativity of an art project with the challenge of solving a puzzle.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs), learners will model how paleontologists estimate the age of fossil discoveries by extracting “fossil” playing cards from newspa

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this game, learners are stuck in a right turn only world! Learners take turns rolling a die and moving their game pieces along the lines of a grid to get "home," by only making right turns.

In this activity, learners investigate visual perception as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

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 about human interface design issues, learners help the Oompa-Loompas of a great chocolate factory solve different problems.
