Science Friday Projects for Home or School

Came across these over the weekend - some great lessons from Science Friday

Some examples:
  • Challenge: Create Something New Using Plastic Bags - Your challenge is to repurpose plastic shopping bags to create something new and useful. The sky’s the limit, whether you’re making a prom dress, area rug, a dog poncho, or a kite!
  • Challenge: Make Your Own Paint - Say you run out of paint, what should you do? Make paint from scratch! Learn about pigments and get experimenting in this DIY paint challenge.
  • Challenge: Cardboard - What can you build with cardboard? Build something really impressive out of cardboard in this open-ended cardboard challenge for all ages.
  • Challenge: Simulate A Sneeze - Make sneeze art, and learn a bit about fluid dynamics in the process
  • Go On A Metal Hunt! - A magnet and a penny will help you become a human metal detector.
  • Science Friday Remote Learning Kit - Teachers, Science Friday has updated some of our classic education resources so you can assign them directly to students from your Google Drive.
  • ... and more!
