In this outdoor game, learners role play predator and prey to explore the importance of keen hearing and silent stalking skills in the animal world.

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

In this activity (described on pages 39-42 of PDF), learners make a paper wheel (on pages 57-60 of PDF) that shows them the relative loudness of different sounds.

In this activity (on pages 25-32 of PDF), learners make models of the inner ear out of pipe cleaners.

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

This game is like regular bingo, except the clues are sounds.

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Horse Ears) is a full inquiry investigation into animal behavior and communication.

In this interactive game, learners compare their music-listening skills with that of a three-month-old baby.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a four-stringed instrument that can play a tune.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can model how vibrating particles, such as in a sound wave, bump into other particles causing them to vibrate, and that the vib
