In this activity (12th on the page), learners investigate their ability to discriminate (see) different colors.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners find their blind spot--the area on the retina without receptors that respond to light.

In this demonstration, amaze learners by performing simple tricks using mirrors. These tricks take advantage of how a mirror can reflect your right side so it appears to be your left side.

In this activity (16th on the page), learners play a variation of the "I Spy" game to explore color. Learners work in teams with each team assigned a color.

In this fun optics activity, learners explore principles of light, reflection (mirrors), and perception. Learners work in pairs and sit on opposite sides of a "two-way" mirror.

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

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of hearing to find a "sound match." Learners shake containers filled with items like dry seeds, sand, beans, etc.

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

In this activity (page 2 of PDF), learners play with a lens and a piece of paper to focus an image on the paper. Learners look at different things, and see how the lenses affect the image.

In this activity (11th activity on the page), learners use pennies to test their hearing acuity.

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

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 (6th on the page), learners investigate how photoreceptors in the eye (rods and cones) "adapt" to low light conditions.

This activity is designed to let learners measure their reaction time or response time to something they see.

In this activity (on page 146 of the PDF), learners will explore the effects of increased carbon dioxide in the bloodstream.

In this activity, learners make a Benham Top to explore visual illusions and optics.

In this activity and game, learners will train to improve balance and spatial awareness by performing throwing and catching techniques on one foot.

In this activity related to flight, learners conduct two simple tests to explore how lift works.
