COSI

In this physics activity, learners will gain a better understanding of how friction, inertia, and mass affect objects.

This is an online game that explores speed, range and momentum. Learners will pick the winners in a 16-team tournament in 3 events: Tug-o-war, sprint, and marathon.

This is a web activity about simple machines. Learners will explore a lawn mower and identify six different simple machines which work together to help make our lives easier.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.

In this activity, learners explore acid and bases as they create their own invisible ink out of baking soda and grape juice.

In this activity (page 7 of the PDF), learners will investigate the contents of owl pellets. Learners will discover how owls digest their food as well as the kind of animals they eat.

In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.

In this chemistry activity, learners will test the pH of various foods and household substances using cabbage.

Everybody loves boomerangs! In this activity about force and motion, the learners will experiment with boomerangs and explore how they work. This is a great activity to get learners up and moving.
