Engaging Science Activities and Fun Experiments for Kids

Science A-Z Process Activities provide opportunities to apply important unit concepts and develop scientific practices through hands-on science activities and fun experiments for kids. Students learn to read, think, write, speak, and behave as real scientists in a structured format, which helps prepare them to design and pursue their own investigations in the future.

Each Process Activity includes a purpose, background information, a materials list, procedures, a data sheet, and several questions to help students analyze their data and draw conclusions. Teaching Tips help guide science projects for kids.
