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 (on page 2), pairs of learners create an imaginary crime scene. One person leaves the room while the other person moves a few things around.

In this activity, learners observe what happens when they give a light source like a neon glow lamp a "Bronx Cheer." The lights appear to wiggle back and forth and flicker when learners blow air throu

This activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory) is a full inquiry investigation into the effects of exercise on short term memory.

In this optics activity, learners experiment with polarizers (small dark rectangles) to examine light intensity.

In this robotics activity, learners find ways to express emotions and feelings using only body movements, not facial expressions.

In this activity (6th on the page), learners investigate how photoreceptors in the eye (rods and cones) "adapt" to low light conditions.

In this activity related to the famous "Stroop Effect," learners explore how words influence what we see and how the brain handles "mixed messages." Learners read colored words and are asked to say th

This activity is a sensory experience that recreates the sounds of a pond at night.

In this activity, learners investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.

In this optics activity, learners conduct an experiment to find out why two eyes are better than one!

In this activity (9th activity on the page), learners work in pairs to see how their perception of touch differs from reality.

In this activity, learners discover a brain process called habituation.

In this activity (12th activity on the page), learners conduct an experiment to demonstrate how muscles are constantly feeding information to the brain about what they are doing.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to test how fast they can react. Learners try to catch a piece of paper with a ruler printed on it (or a ruler) as quickly as they can.

In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

In this activity, learners create a water prism to break light into the seven colors of the rainbow.

In this optics activity, learners use glass and water to demonstrate total internal reflection (TIR).

In this activity, learners explore how their depth perception would be affected if they only had one eye. Learners work in pairs and attempt to drop a penny in a cup with one eye covered.

This activity (8th activity on the page) tests learners' ability to identify things using only the sense of hearing.
