In this math activity, learners use non-standard measurement (paces) to find the distance from one point to another. Learners practice estimating and measuring distances .

In this activity, learners "dance" (move back and forth at varying speeds) by reading a graph. This is a kinesthetic way to help learners interpret and understand how motion is graphed.

In this engineering activity, learners examine bicycle mechanics and gear ratios. Learners determine which gears will help them bike a set course in the shortest amount of time.

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

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most. Then, learners estimate the size of a Triceratops and T.

In this activity, learners play a game and use pattern blocks to explore mirror images and reflection.

In this activity, reuse two-liter bottles to create bowling pins. Learners practice math skills and develop a concept of verifying answers, while bowling and keeping score.

In this fun activity for any size group, early elementary learners complete physical challenges while playing a game. Learners add new challenges to the "wheel of fitness" that they want to try.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their breathing and pulse rates, and learn how these measurements are affected by physical activity.

In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

In this activity, learners simulate a wolf and its habitat and observe what happens when the limiting factors change over time.

This activity (on pages 21-32 of PDF) has learners act out several classic brain teasers.

In this math activity, learners earn "money" by completing simple tasks. Learners complete as many "jobs" as possible in a set amount of time.

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

This activity is a whole-group kinesthetic demonstration that shows learners what it means to be in a "risk group" for developing heart disease based on family history and genetics.

In this math activity, learners play a game and identify patterns with fun moves and sounds. Discover how dancing and signing involve patterns.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

In this activity (located on page 4 of PDF), learners gain insight into the actual size of dinosaurs and practice making estimations and measurements.

In this activity about flight, learners explore how high they can jump. Learners dip their finger in ink or dirt, then jump as high as they can and mark paper attached to the wall.
