In this activity, learners use plastic tubing and a funnel to listen to their heart. Learners also discover that if they run around, their heart pumps harder and faster, making it easier to hear.

In this activity, learners will train to increase bone strength and to improve heart and other muscle endurance by performing jump training with a rope, both while stationary and moving.

In this activity, learners perform 20 arm curls with cans that simulate the weight of beans on Earth versus the weights of the same number of beans on the Moon and in space.

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

In this activity, learners train to increase muscular strength and improve upper and lower body coordination by performing the “bear crawl” and the "crab walk.” Learners perform the exercises over tim

In this activity, learners will train to develop upper and lower body strength in their muscles and bones by performing body-weight squats and push-ups.

In this activity, learners explore the importance of active play.

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 about center of gravity (page 23 of PDF), learners investigate how the body adjusts to the force of gravity to remain balanced.

In this activity and game, learners will train to improve balance and spatial awareness by performing throwing and catching techniques on one foot.

In this activity about physical stress (page 28 of PDF), learners discover that muscles and bones need to work to stay strong.

In this activity about heart health (on page 27 of the PDF), learners measure their heart rates after a variety of physical activities and compare the results with their resting heart rates, and with
