Source Institutions
In this engineering activity, learners construct sturdy geodesic structures out of gumdrops and toothpicks. Use this activity to explore engineering principles as well as sturdy shapes and triangles.

Action Figure
Source Institutions
In this project, students explore how levers work, by making a puppet with moving limbs.

Paddle Power
Source Institutions
In this design challenge, learners build a boat that paddles itself using a rubber band as its power source.

What Gives?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners design, build and test a model suspension bridge for sturdiness and strength.

Float My Boat
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?

Roller Coasters
Source Institutions
In this design challenge, learners will create their own roller coaster using household objects for the track and a marble or small ball as their cart.

Crazy About Kites
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a kite out of paper, change it, and try to make it fly even better. With their new knowledge of kite making, students can then go on to create their own kite designs.
