This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can utilize it to investigate volume, mass, and density.

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

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this activity, learners will use cereal to conduct an experiment and investigate how decreased bone density is related to increased risk of bone fracture.
