Give or Take?
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners work in pairs using their senses—especially touch—to learn more about individual trees.

Passion for Pixels
Source Institutions
In this technology activity, learners explore digital imaging and pixels. Learners "transmit" an image to a partner by creating an image on grid paper.

Our Chemical Senses: Olfaction
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

Number Sense and Computation: Food For Thought
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners identify and compare unit costs of given items. Learners use computation skills, problem solving and number sense to find the cost of an ounce of cereal.
