Create beautiful spirals by drawing a straight line. This sounds crazy, but you can with a turntable (a record player or lazy susan), paper, and pen.

In this activity, learners keep track of how much paper the group uses in a week. Build awareness of paper waste, while strengthening measurement and estimation skills.

In this activity, learners will experiment with textures, shapes, and materials and create their own unique masterpieces.

Which one of your eyes are dominant? Do they act independently or are they equally "in control?" This activity explores how your eyes work (or don't work) together.

In this simple activity, learners discover how a mere piece of paper can be used to hold up the weight of a heavy book.

Do you have a hard time matching paint swatches with your furniture? When you consider human perception, color is context dependent.
