Build a glider that uses the same physics as a curve ball, for less than a dime.

To understand how skaters turn in midair, try this little experiment! Individuals can do this activity alone, but it works better with a partner.

Directed by instructional cards, learners kinesthetically model cell communication by acting as components in a cell signaling pathway.

You may have tried to throw a curveball or a slider, or even a screwball, with an ordinary baseball and found it difficult to do.

In this three-part activity, learners use paper to explore Bernoulli's Principle — fast-moving air has lower pressure than non-moving air.

What keeps bubbles and other things, like airplanes, floating or flying in the air?

In this simulation activity, learners act as parts of the circulatory system and discover how it serves as a transport system for food/nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide and waste.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Where's Nano? Activity) about identifying nanoscale objects and phenomena in today's world.

In this activity, learners participate in fun movement activities while playing on a giant game board. Use this activity to get learners involved in physical activity.

In this activity, learners of all ages will roll a ball coated with paint to artistically visualize the motion of the object.

In this activity, learners explore reaction time and challenge themselves to improve their coordination. Do you want to move faster? Catch that ball that you never seem to see in time?

In this activity (page 87 of the PDF), learners move their bodies to better understand the three axes of rotation: pitch, roll and yaw.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a convenient way for someone using crutches or a wheelchair to carry small personal items.

In this physical activity, groups of learners act as blood cells traveling through the circulatory system.

This is an activity about discovering the colors and beauty of nature. Learners will spend time outdoors, matching paint chip samples, colored paper, or colors of clothing to those found in nature.

By tossing, collecting, and sorting beanbags, learners understand how the IBEX spacecraft uses its sensors to detect and map the locations of particle types in the interstellar boundary.

In this set of outdoor games, learners increase their awareness of the outdoor environment by going on a scavenger hunt and an out-of-place hunt.

In this activity, learners explore water pressure by conducting an experiment with a garden hose. Learners build a testing apparatus and create PVC nozzles with different sized holes.
