Two quick classroom games -- one for the younger set, one for the older set
Simon Says variant -- use commands relating to robots or any other science activity:
Space:
* "walk on the moon"
* "fly a spaceship"
* "float in the space lab"
Robots:
* "crank up your robot"
* "open robot claw"
* "robot spin"
* "robot wave arms"
Squiggle balls can provide interesting lessons in graphing and physics and randomness, particularly when talking about "Random Walks". Case in point -- set off a squiggle ball for each group and have them record its position at regular intervals (10 seconds... longer times for younger students). Compare plots.
