In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore the sensitivity of their sense of touch.

In this activity about neuron/target muscle recognition (page 44 of the PDF), learners arranged in two rows facing away from each other use string to simulate neural development.

In this activity (11th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify matching pairs of objects hidden in bags. Learners can also play this game with partners.

In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

This activity (on pages 21-32 of PDF) has learners act out several classic brain teasers.

In this activity, learners create a mind and math puzzle that requires a three-dimensional solution.

In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

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

In this activity (26th on the page), learners construct an easy-to-build device and test motor learning.

In this activity (3rd on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their eyes is more dominant.

In this activity (1st activity on the page), learners explore their sense of taste and the structure of the tongue by taste-testing various foods.

In this activity (page 37 of the PDF), learners observe, on a prepared slide, muscle and spinal cord cells from a rat.

In this activity, learners construct three math puzzles out of simple materials like wood, string, and Styrofoam.

This activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory) is a full inquiry investigation into the effects of exercise on short term memory.

In this activity (5th activity on the page), learners explore how what you see influences taste. In experiment 1, learners taste five sodas, one of which is clear soda with orange food coloring.

In this activity, learners investigate visual perception as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity (page 105 of the PDF), learners measure heart rate and blood pressure and learn how to obtain consistent measurements during repeated tests.

In this activity, learners build and play three math games. In the first game, called "Switcheroo," learners place marbles in holes 1 through 4 and 7 through 10.

In this activity, learners will perform various investigations to understand the vestibular-ocular reflex and learn about the importance of visual cues in maintaining balance.
