Use this activity (13th activity on the page) to introduce learners to the sense of touch. Learners collect objects of varying textures like feathers, rocks, sand, etc.

In this activity, learners calculate their water usage (in cups and galloons) during an average shower. Learners also chart and analyze water usage during showers in their households.

In this activity (on pages 15-18 of PDF), learners make a life-size two-dimensional paper model of their own skeletons.

In this math activity, learners experiment with the concept of symmetry.

In this activity, learners create an optical illusion by spinning two attached cups. A round ball seems to magically appear when the cups spin.

In this activity about magnetism (page seven of the pdf), learners experiment with magnets to better understand how magnetic fields work.

In this activity, learners construct and launch rockets using simple materials and their understanding of chemical reactions.

In this math activity, learners earn "money" by completing simple tasks. Learners complete as many "jobs" as possible in a set amount of time.

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

In this activity, learners will use static elecricity to bend a stream of water without touching it. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, learners discover that some plastics will shrink when you get them hot. Learners bake polystyrene in a regular oven and discover what happens.

In this activity, learners will explore the water cycle by creating a small atmosphere.

In this sunny day activity, learners compare how a cup of water and a cup of tonic water reflect or refract light in the sun.

Make snack time into measuring time and learn to read Nutrition Facts labels. Try this when you’re using “pourable” foods, such as cereal, yoghurt, or juice.

In this activity, learners will create a magnifying glass called a waterscope, using water and household items, to examine various objects.

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

In this activity, the learner asks yes-no questions to identify a secret object (similar to Twenty Questions). This game is easy to adapt for different ages and different kinds of contexts.

In this self-measuring activity, learners observe and record how many times a minute they blink, take a breath, and chew, as well as how many times a minute their heart beats.

In this activity, learners will explore what a constellation is and make their own.
