Learners explore the concepts of equilibrium and center of mass by seeing how non-symmetrical objects balance.

In this activity, learners build a simple tabletop seesaw to test how different variables (the position of the fulcrum, distance, weight) affect its balance under increasing weight loads.

In this activity, learners investigate balance and symmetry by designing a symmetrical butterfly, using a paper cutout.

In this activity, learners create a kind of balance device using a wire coat hanger, some string, and paper cups.

In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will build a class 1 lever and hypothesize and test the distances two objects need to be placed from the fulcrum in order to balance.

During this activity, learners take part in a variety of tasks which involve moving and balancing different body parts.
