In this activity, learners of all ages will roll a ball coated with paint to artistically visualize the motion of the object.

In this physical activity, groups of learners act as blood cells traveling through the circulatory system.

This is an activity about discovering the colors and beauty of nature. Learners will spend time outdoors, matching paint chip samples, colored paper, or colors of clothing to those found in nature.

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, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

In this math activity, learners predict how many pom-poms they can toss inside a circle from three feet away. Use this activity to help learners explore probability.

In this activity, learners will discover how to make butter from scratch. One optional tips includes adding marbles to speed up the process.

In this outdoor, windy day activity, learners "fly" and race leaves along a line to discover which types of leaves catch the most wind. Which leaves are the best fliers? Why?

In this activity, learners track their movements with jumping and leaping graphs.

In this challenge, learners make a helium balloon hover in one spot and then move it through an obstacle course using air currents.
