In this activity, learners build bridges out of newspaper and tape to explore how structures are designed to bear loads.

In this engineering activity, young learners investigate multi-level buildings.

This activity (on pages 13-18) has learners build a model tree and then figure out how to make their tree stand up by itself.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

In this activity, learners explore dinosaurs and fossils by creating a diorama.

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

In this engineering activity (page 2 of PDF), young learners investigate how a wide base can make a building more stable. Learners use blocks or boxes of different sizes to construct stable towers.

In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

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

In this activity, learners investigate the Moon's infancy and model how an ocean of molten rock (magma) helped shape the Moon that we see today.

In this activity, learners model how the Moon's volcanic period reshaped its earlier features.
