In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

In this activity, learners overlap the three primary colors to see how all other colors are made.

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

Do you have a hard time matching paint swatches with your furniture? When you consider human perception, color is context dependent.

In this activity, learners design unique tiles and make repeating patterns to create tessellations. This activity combines the creativity of an art project with the challenge of solving a puzzle.

We're told from a young age that we have 5 senses, but we have many more. One of which is our awareness of our own body part's orientation and position.

We don't normally view people upside down and so our brains aren't accustomed to it.

When you teeth clatter, they make quite the racket disproportionately to how much they actually sound to someone else.

Have you ever heard of a camera without a lens? In this activity, learners create a pinhole camera out of simple materials. They'll see the world in a whole new way: upside down and backwards!

This science activity demonstrates the dominant eye phenomena. What does your brain do when it sees two images that conflict?

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

Known as the waterfall effect, this activity demonstrates adaptation in our visual system.

In this hands-on activity, learners make the world's simplest Cartesian diver, using only a plastic bottle, some water, and a condiment packet.

In this activity, learners work in groups to create a time line representing significant moments in their lives.

In this activity, learners use pattern blocks and mirrors to explore symmetry. Learners work in pairs and build mirror images of each other's designs.

Put a string around your head, and play it! Learn about vibration, sounds, and pitch.

In this activity, learners construct a device out of a piezoelectric igniter, like those used as barbecue lighters.

In this activity, learners sublimate dry ice and then taste the carbon dioxide gas.

We listen to stereo music systems, tv's, and radios because it simulates being where the sound originates.

In this activity, learners create a tiny electric, motorized dancer. Learners use the interactions of magnetism and electric current to make a wire spin, while displaying the Lorentz Force in action.
