In this activity, learners mimic remote sensing. Learners use a stick to measure the distance to a "planet surface" they cannot see, and create their own map of the landscape.

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

In this lab, learners experience how dolphins and other echolocating animals use their senses to locate and identify objects without using their sense of sight.

In this activity, learners use their sense of smell to explore the world on the nanoscale.

Are balloons porous or non-porous? In this activity, learners watch an entertaining Mr. O video and conduct a simple experiment to find out.

In this outdoor activity, learners work in pairs using their senses—especially touch—to learn more about individual trees.

In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

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.

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

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

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 "Sid the Science Kid" activity from Episode 103: Enough With the Seashells!, learners practice estimating numbers of objects (like shells) and then check their estimates by counting.

In this math lesson, learners use slices of bread and geoboards to explore several ways to divide a rectangle in half. Learners also identify equivalent fractions that represent one-half.

In this activity, learners investigate the touch sensory system and discover how to plan and carry out their own experiments.

In this math activity, learners estimate how many pennies are in a jar by predicting and counting handfuls of pennies.

In this outdoor activity, learners measure familiar objects in nature to practice working with the metric system.

This assortment of mathematical games can be played while traveling.
