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

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

Young learners investigate and observe the properties of three liquids -- water, vegetable oil, and corn syrup. They use their senses to collect data and ask and answer questions.

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.

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 build a simple pinhole viewer. They use this apparatus to project images from a variety of light sources, including a candle, the Sun, and the Moon.

In this sunny day, outdoor activity, learners observe changes in shadows over time. The activity also helps to develop a sense of the Earth's motion.

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

In this activity on page 6 of the PDF (Chemistry—It’s Elemental), learners explore some of the properties of copper using a few common household ingredients.

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.

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

This is an activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under What's Nano? Activity) about size and scale.

In this activity, learners use household materials to investigate and explore their ability to smell an odor.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.
