In this activity (26th on the page), learners construct an easy-to-build device and test motor learning.

Learners build and investigate pendulums of different lengths. They discover that the longer the string of the pendulum, the longer the time it takes to swing.

In this activity, learners investigate procedural memory.

Learners engage in close observation of falling objects. They determine it is the amount of air resistance, not the weight of an object, which determines how quickly an object falls.

In this activity, learners create 3D geometric shapes using straws and pipe cleaners.

In this activity, learners will be introduced to biomass gasification and will generate their own biomass gases.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from onion cells using simple materials.

Why does milk make some people sick? In this activity learners explore this question and explore the chemistry of milk, and our bodies!

In this activity, learners play a card game that explores different size scales--macro, micro and nano.

In this activity, learners try to float ink on the surface of water to create a pattern and then capture it with absorbent paper.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this simulation, learners become birds different beak types. Learners use various tools to represent beaks to pick up seeds and place them in a petri dish.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can utilize it to investigate volume, mass, and density.

Most of the time, we don't have to think about breathing. In fact, you're probably breathing right now without thinking about it!

Our bodies produce snot, or mucus, that we blow from our noses. In this activity, learners will create a model of how snot works and will explore how it keeps our bodies healthy.

In this activity, learners construct a home-made journal with simple, everyday materials.

In this activity, learners will exercise their imaginations and artistic skills. Appropriate for all ages, learners will create unique pieces to jumpstart storytelling sessions.

An ordinary camera has a lens that makes an image on film. In a pinhole camera, a small hole replaces the lens.

From this How To slide show, you create an Audio Tape Bow that can play distorted audio sounds by running it across a tape head.

In this activity, learners will determine if the frequency and intensity of hurricanes are changing using real data from the National Hurricane Center.
