In this outdoor activity, learners play a game of Tag to discover how neurons attach themselves to each other to form a chain.

Are fingers the only place on the body where we use our sense of touch? In this activity (6th activity on the page), learners test the touch sensitivity of different parts of the body.

In this activity (4th on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their ears is more dominant.

In this demonstration (9th on the page), learners explore eyewitness memory and how memories differ amongst individuals. While the rest of the group is minding their own business (i.e.

During this activity, learners take part in a variety of tasks which involve moving and balancing different body parts.

In this game-like activity (5th activity on the page), learners explore their auditory acuity as well as the importance of having two ears.

In this activity (9th activity on the page), learners work in pairs to see how their perception of touch differs from reality.

Learners test their memory and ability to learn memory strategies in this game. Partners start with an array of poker chips, coins, or paper squares on the table.

In this activity (14th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners examine if it is easier or harder to identify an object if they move their hands over it.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners explore circadian rhythms by keeping track of their body temperature.

These two activities (4th on the page) demonstrate the importance of two eyes in judging depth.

In this activity (17th on the page), learners investigate why you cannot see colors in dim light.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their hands is more dominant. In other words, are they right-handed or left-handed?

In this activity about light and refraction, learners discover how a lens creates an image that hangs in midair.

This activity (8th activity on the page) tests learners' ability to identify things using only the sense of hearing.

In this activity (3rd on the page), learners investigate circadian rhythms by examining how well people do with estimating time.

In this activity about sleep rhythms (on page 25 of the PDF), learners will investigate how changing the time they go to bed impacts their own sleep patterns.
