In this activity about center of gravity (page 23 of PDF), learners investigate how the body adjusts to the force of gravity to remain balanced.

In this activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners will turn an ordinary tray of sand into a desk-top garden for meditation.

In this math activity, learners predict how many pom-poms they can toss inside a circle from three feet away. Use this activity to help learners explore probability.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to build a tower out of 10 sheets of newspaper and 3 feet of masking tape, which can hold a golf ball balancing at the top.

In this activity, learners develop spatial reasoning skills as they blow bubbles and observe what happens when the bubbles connect.

In this math activity, learners play a game and use a variety of strategies to solve a hidden number problem (or missing factor). Learners practice their number and operations skills.

In this activity, learners use tangrams ( 7-piece puzzle tiles) to assemble a variety of shapes. Tangrams are ideal for improving spatial reasoning and geometry properties.

In this activity, learners play a guessing game to explore classification.

In this math activity, learners create symmetrical designs for paper models of special blouses known as huipiles.

In this hands-on activity, learners use toothpicks to build different triangles and squares and then use the toothpicks to build and solve some tricky shape puzzles.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized "whiskers" can protect clothing from stains.

In this activity, learners play a card game that explores different size scales--macro, micro and nano.

In this activity, learners construct three quick and simple mechanisms to start building a pop-up book. Learners fold, cut, and glue paper to make a bird beak, parallelogram, and V-fold.

In this activity, learners investigate the concepts of relative size and distance by creating a basic model of the solar system.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this activity, learners will exercise their imaginations and artistic skills. Appropriate for all ages, learners will create unique pieces to jumpstart storytelling sessions.
