In this activity, learners create a model of a neuron by using colored clay or play dough. Learners use diagrams to build the model and then label the parts on a piece of paper.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of sight and develop and conduct their own experiments.

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.

This activity (9th activity on the page) about hearing demonstrates to learners the importance of having two ears.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (fourth activity on the page). One learner stands behind a see-through barrier like a window or wire screen.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

In this activity, learners construct a three-dimensional ambiguous cube to explore visual illusions and how our brains interpret or misinterpret information.

In this activity related to the famous "Stroop Effect," learners explore how words influence what we see and how the brain handles "mixed messages." Learners read colored words and are asked to say th

In this activity (1st on the page), learners find their blind spot--the area on the retina without receptors that respond to light.

In this activity (12th on the page), learners investigate their ability to discriminate (see) different colors.

In this activity (6th on the page), learners investigate how photoreceptors in the eye (rods and cones) "adapt" to low light conditions.

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

In this simple exploratory activity (1st activity on the page), blindfolded learners try to identify mystery items by smell.

In this activity about olfaction (9th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors, including some edible food items.

In this artistic activity, learners blow up a smaller picture into a larger one, by using a grid.

In this activity, learners will use their nose to sniff out hidden scents using extracts and cotton balls. Activity includes materials list, game instructions, STEM connections and more.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore the sensitivity of their sense of touch.

In this easy demonstration (3rd on the page), learners explore depth perception by conducting a test with two pencils.

In this activity (8th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners make their own set of Braille letters. Learners use glue to make raised dots on a Braille Alphabet Sheet.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.
