In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

This activity guide features three related explorations to help learners ages 3-6 investigate shadows via the following science concepts: A shadow is made when an object blocks the light; you can chan

In this three-part activity, learners conduct simple experiments to see how light refracts and reflects, and how colors of light affect what we see.

In this activity (posted on March 12, 2011), learners follow the steps to construct a spectroscope, a tool used to analyze light and color.

In this activity, learners discover that the human brain is highly adaptable. Learners try to toss beanbags at a target while wearing prism goggles.

In this activity, learners construct an indoors obstacle course and discover how using an eye patch can help them complete the course in the dark.

In this activity, learners will perform various investigations to understand the vestibular-ocular reflex and learn about the importance of visual cues in maintaining balance.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners explore how we see color.

In this experiment, learners will conduct chemical and physical tests to identify mystery substances.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to look over ledges or around corners.

In this culinary activity, learners use multiple senses (sight, smell, touch, and taste!) to explore real seaweed samples.

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.

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!

In this activity, learners investigate procedural memory.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this simple chemistry activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Colorblind Dogs) about acids and bases, learners will mix a baking soda and water solution and use it to paint a message on a

In this activity, learners experience firsthand how marine animals' adaptive coloration camouflages them from prey.

In this activity, learners investigate how geometry plays a role in perspective.

Learners participate in a variety of activities modeling different disabilities.
