Showing Results for visual programming

Using a toy race car kids create a visual model of the Doppler Effect.

What causes sound? Here's a simple science experiment that adds a visual element to the science of sound to help kids better understand this tricky concept.

This activity challenges students to use computational thinking as they create a sequence of commands that will make a robot navigate around several obstacles.

In this activity, students will be challenged to describe and count the ways a toy moves from one position on a grid to another.

The purpose of this study is to determine if people can tell the difference between organic and conventional food from looking at, smelling and tasting it.

Do plants breathe? Not exactly. They do respire though! This activity will help your child with see that plants are producing the oxygen we need to survive.

Learn about sound physics and do a survey experiment to explore the difference between sound and noise in this science project.

This experiment works due to a simple principle: plants need light. Build a shoebox maze and watch the plant work though the obstacle course, searching for sun.

The fish most kids see is usually filleted, and it's hard to see how it came from a lake or sea. This cool gyotaku activity blends life science with art!
