In this art activity (page seven of the pdf), learners will use their creativity to make a "motion collage." Each student will be encouraged to draw a picture of something that moves to be a part of the collage, and to write and decorate motion words as well. This activity is especially wonderful for those with a more artistic bent to use their talents and connect them to science.
