Free, Grade-Leveled Experiments Ideas – Start Any Time
Ready to find your project? We provide dozens of free experiment guides, each a blueprint for a show-stopping science fair entry. These guides are your mission, and our SpikerBox science kits are the high-tech gear you'll use to complete it.
Each experiment is grade-leveled (e.g., Grade 4+, Grade 6+), so you can jump right into a project that’s the perfect fit. For example, with the right SpikerBox, you could:
-
Visual-Motor Reaction Time (Grade 6+)
Learn moreFlash a light and measure how fast you respond with a reaction timer; test how training or games affect your speed
-
Hear & See Muscles in Action (Grade 4+)
Learn moreRecord electrical signals from your muscles with a SpikerBox and discover how your brain controls movement
-
Heart Action Potentials: ECG (Grade 4+)
Learn moreUse the Human SpikerBox to capture your heartbeat’s ECG waveform and learn how your brain influences heart rate
-
Control a Neuroprosthetic (The Claw)
Learn morePlace EMG electrodes on your forearm to command a robotic Claw gripper, demonstrating a real brain–machine interface
-
Spikes! Hear & See Living Neurons (Grade 4+)
Learn moreUse the Neuron SpikerBox and a cockroach leg to listen to live neuron spikes, learning how nerves transmit impulses
-
Human-to-Human Control (Grade 6+)
Learn moreConnect two volunteers with the Human-Human Interface device to feel how one person’s muscle twitch can trigger another’s, illustrating neural communication
