Learners experiment to see which colors of light will cause a phosphorescent (glow-in-the-dark) material to glow.

This activity (9th activity on the page) about hearing demonstrates to learners the importance of having two ears.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a car that can travel at least four feet using rubber band power and use the design process to debug problems.

In this activity, learners apply a dissolving test to known crystals to identify the unknown. Since the unknown is chemically the same as one of the known crystals, it should dissolve similarly.

In this activity, learners will discover how to make butter from scratch. One optional tips includes adding marbles to speed up the process.

In this activity, learners control the (apparent) size of a hole with their brain.

Why does milk make some people sick? In this activity learners explore this question and explore the chemistry of milk, and our bodies!

In this activity, learners consider how oil spills behave in the ocean and what impact they have on marine wildlife.

In this activity, learners explore the process of condensation.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized "whiskers" can protect clothing from stains.

In this activity, learners use transparent tape and polarizing material to create and project beautifully colored patterns reminiscent of abstract or geometric stained glass windows--no glass required

In this activity, learners use a compact disc to make a spectrometer, an instrument used to measure properties of light.

This is part 3 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity. Before starting this section, learners must have completed part 1: sedimentary rock and part 2: metamorphic rocks.

In this activity, learners create their own experiment and test which of 4 mixtures of household chemicals turn pennies green over 5 days.

In this activity, learners create models of ionic compounds and observe the chemical formula of binary molecules they have created.

In this activity, learners write a secret message in "invisible ink" and then use chemistry to view the writing.

In this activity on page 8 of the PDF, learners make a slimy substance very similar to mucus, and sprinkle it with glitter to imitate the way that allergens are trapped.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can utilize it to investigate volume, mass, and density.

This is an activity about inertia, Newton's First Law of Motion. Learners will discover how an egg at rest, or any object at rest, stays that way.

In this activity, learners make a model of the hot water of a deep sea vent in the cold water of the ocean to learn about one of the ocean's most amazing and bizarre underwater habitats.
