In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

In this design challenge activity, learners add headphones to a previously built instrument (see "Build a Band" activity) to make it easier to hear.

Build a house you can fit inside, using cardboard tubes.

In this activity, learners will predict the size of a giant scale model of a comb or other rectangular object, then make one. If you tripled the size of a dollar bill, could you sit on it?

In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.

This activity is a hit for family events and all ages—some will finish in 45 minutes; others can go on for hours.

In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.

In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

In this activity, learners make or use pre-made clay beams to scale and proportion. Specifically, they discover that when you scale up proportionally (i.e.

In this math lesson, learners participate in several activities where they apply measurement skills.

This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.

In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.
