It depends on what level of English you teach.  Pehaps you could instruct your students to describe appropriate types of clothing for different weather conditions.  Another idea is to have them describe their diet and exercise habits, hobbies, responsibilities, and other daily tasks.

Build a solar cell from a couple of thin sheets of copper and some salt water.  It requires a heat source, but with parental supervision it can be done by a 4th grader.  Easy!\n\n(see links below for how it's done)

This is pretty wide open.  Can you narrow down the age level and subjects?  I assume you are teaching literacy?

Maybe 18, if at all.  I've read some surprisingly thought-provoking questions from 16 year olds needing help on their homework, followed by people in their 30s who didn't know the Earth rotates around the sun.

My son just did one for 4th grade.  He used Optical Illusions and their perception among age groups.  It turned out really cool.  We copied optical illusions from library books and pasted them up.  Then he made a stop-motion animation move on his computer, and explained how he did it.  He also made flip-books. It was cool.

I was a preschool teacher for a few years\nRead them a book about wind,\n1. then make wind socks\n2. have them paint by making their own wind.  Give them straws and have them blow the paint\n3. Make kites\n4. give them grocery bags (plastic) and have them "catch wind"  they will run with the bag, the bag will fill up with air.\n5. make a wind chime.  Use the long tube pasta, or ask the parents to bring in items that could be used for a wind chime.\n6. blow bubbles\n7. make paper air planes and take them outside and let the wind blow them.\n8.  throw grass in the air, see which way it blows.
