In this activity (2nd on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which foot is more dominant. In other words, are they right-footed or left-footed?

In this activity (1st on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their hands is more dominant. In other words, are they right-handed or left-handed?

This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

In this activity (25th on the page) about learning and memory, learners explore a training method that animal trainers employ called "shaping." Working in pairs, learners will attempt to "shape" each

In this activity, learners discover how exercise helps keep the body healthy. Learners increase their heart rates by running and understand how running fast versus walking affects their pulse rates.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this space science activity, learners work together to create a human-powered orrery to model the movements of the four inner planets.

In this math activity, learners jump and measure how far they can jump on different surfaces using different jumping techniques.

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 engineering/design activity, learners make a kite, fly it, and then work to improve the design. Learners explore how their kite design variations affect flight.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

Combine math and exercise with this activity. Learners count how many times in a row they can skip rope or throw and catch a ball.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Double Dutch), learners will stand twelve feet apart swinging a rope at the slowest tempo possible while someone uses a stopwatch to record

In this activity, learners model a population of deer and see how the number of deer changes over time.

In this activity, learners work in teams to build and test paper airplanes. Learners try to fly their airplanes directly on the runway and earn points for accuracy.

Learners will determine their respiratory rate and explore the factors that affect breathing rate by filling out and using the Respiratory Chart provided in the lesson.

In this geometry activity, learners explore networks painted on playgrounds, such as a four square court, and draw their own.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners use their bodies to measure a room. Instead of inches or feet, how many kids does it take to measure the length of a room?

In this optics activity, learners split white light into all its component colors using three household items: a compact disc, dishwashing liquid, and a hose (outside).

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.
