In this activity (4th activity on the page), learners use their sense of smell to rate and arrange containers filled with different dilutions of a scent (like cologne or fruit juice) in order from wea

In this activity, learners use earthworms as "unknown creatures" from the South American jungle to find out how animals use senses.

In this activity about olfaction (8th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors. Then they try to identify the smells when they are mixed together.

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.

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

This activity includes several games about animal sounds. Using their sense of hearing and communicating with various kinds of noisemakers, learners role-play predator and prey.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this activity, learners will use their nose to sniff out hidden scents using extracts and cotton balls. Activity includes materials list, game instructions, STEM connections and more.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of sight and develop and conduct their own experiments.

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of hearing and plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this game (4th activity on the page) about hearing, learners test their ability to identify various sounds without looking.

In this activity (last activity on the page), learners make a model of the eardrum (also called the "tympanic membrane") and see how sound travels through the air.

This activity (9th activity on the page) about hearing demonstrates to learners the importance of having two ears.

In this activity (4th activity on the page), learners test to see if saliva is necessary for food to have taste.

In this activity, learners sniff out scents hidden in balloons! After investigating, learners discover we sometimes can use another sense (smell) to detect things too small to see.

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

In this activity (12th activity on the page), learners conduct an experiment to demonstrate how muscles are constantly feeding information to the brain about what they are doing.

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

Use this hands-on activity to demonstrate infrared and thermal radiation.
