In this online activity, learners will brush up on their multiplication, division, and factoring skills with this exciting game.

In this puzzle, learners investigate the decisions involved in linking a network between houses in a muddy city.

In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War) is a full inquiry investigation into tug-of-war physics. Groups of learners will test two tug-of-war strategies.

In this activity, learners make cool boxes out of old (or new) greeting cards or postcards.

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

In this activity, learners create a battery from fruit. This activity helps learners explore electricity, electrochemistry, and series circuits as well as the process of scientific inquiry.

In this two-part math lesson, learners investigate problems that foster algebraic thinking across content strands. In the first part, learners explore even and odd numbers linked to quilts.

In this math lesson, learners use slices of bread and geoboards to explore several ways to divide a rectangle in half. Learners also identify equivalent fractions that represent one-half.

In this math activity related to light, learners explore why a light, such as a candle or a streetlight, looks dimmer the farther away from it we get.

In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).

Put the math of measurement, numbers, and everyday life into improvisational skits.

In this data analysis and environmental science activity, learners evaluate the feasibility of wave energy as a practical alternative energy source using ocean observing system (OOS) buoys.

Build time sense into the schedule by asking learners to predict what can happen in a certain amount of time: We have 20 minutes before outdoor time. What can you get done?

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

This activity lets learners participate in the process of reconstructing a phylogenetic tree and introduces them to several core bioinformatics concepts, particularly in relation to evolution.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, learners will ask yes-no questions to identify a secret number (similar to Twenty Questions). Combine logic and numbers in this game for all ages.

In this activity, learners use basic measurements of the Earth and pieces of rock and iron to estimate the mass of the Earth.
