Book Two
Explore, Learn, and Create with Dr. K!
Join Jennifer and Daniel on their adventures through time while exploring science and fun activities.
Radiation Safety Simulation
Stay safe like a real scientist — practice using distance and shields!
Marie Curie did not know how dangerous radiation was at first. Today, scientists stay safe by using barriers and measuring exposure. Try this safe simulation to see how it works!
Timeline of Women in Science
Meet the amazing women who changed the world — just like Marie Curie!
Science is full of women who made big discoveries. This timeline will help you learn their names and honor their work.
Build a Model Atom
Make your own atom and discover what is inside everything!
Everything is made of atoms, but you cannot see them — not even with a microscope. This model helps you picture what atoms look like and how energy can come from deep inside.
Reveal the Invisible Message
Make invisible energy appear — with crayons and watercolors!
Marie Curie studied things that were invisible to the human eye. In this activity, you will write a secret message and then reveal it — just like discovering hidden energy!
Color-Changing Chemistry
Mix up some safe science and watch colors change like magic!
Marie Curie was a chemist, too. You can use a natural indicator to test how some things are acids and others are bases — with beautiful results!
The Candy Decay Game
Become a scientist and watch atoms disappear — with candy!
Radioactive atoms break down slowly over time, but it is hard to see because it happens so tiny and so fast. With candy, you can pretend each piece is an atom and watch them “decay” one by one.
