This is an activity (located on page 131 of the PDF) related to sleep and circadian rhythms as well as space travel.

In this activity about the brain and sleep (on page 138 of the PDF), learners measure their resting breathing rates. Learners will discover that breathing frequencies vary amongst individuals.

In this activity, learners create a simple “top” from a CD, marble and bottle cap, and use it as a spinning platform for a variety of illusion-generating patterns.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners explore circadian rhythms by keeping track of their body temperature.

In this activity (on page 142 of the PDF), learners will compare breathing rates before and after hyperventilation to explore how reduced carbon dioxide levels in the blood lower the need to breathe.

This activity is designed to let learners measure their reaction time or response time to something they see.

In this activity, learners use two different techniques to estimate how many little things fit into one bigger thing.
