This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this movement and measurement activity, learners jump as far as they can three times, and compare their longest jump to the longest jump of their friends, classmates and/or family members.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons and anatomy. Learners make observations about a T. rex skeleton diagram and then measure the skeleton length and width.

In this activity, learners use a compact disc to make a spectrometer, an instrument used to measure properties of light.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

Learners use a variety of beans to represent a variety of species, and scatter these beans over a large piece of paper representing the environment.

In this activity, learners build penetrometers to test leaf toughness. Biologists measure leaf toughness to study the feeding preferences of insects and bugs.

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

In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory), learners will investigate what happens to bubble gum when it is chewed for 5-10 minutes.

In this outdoor activity linking human health to the environment, learners use their pulse rates as a measure of the effort expended in walking on different slopes.

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this math lesson, learners construct box-and-whisker plots to analyze and compare data sets. Learners investigate whether or not long-legged people run faster than short-legged people.
