Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

In this activity, learners design, build and test a model suspension bridge for sturdiness and strength.

In this activity, learners build bridges and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with straws and pins.

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.

In this activity, learners use design thinking to design and build their own bridge out of household materials including adhesives and/or connectors.

In this design activity, learners create a vehicle that can transport a load, like a favorite toy or as a recycled object, from the top of a zipline to the bottom using only gravity.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

This lesson focuses on surface area and how the shape of sugar crystals may differ as they are grown from sugars of different coarseness.

In this team design challenge (page 19-24 of PDF), learners "land" a model Lunar Rover in a model Landing Pod (both previously built in activities #3 and #4 in PDF).

In this team design challenge (page 2-10 of PDF), learners design and build a model of a Lunar Transport Rover that will carry equipment and people on the surface of the Moon.

In this team design challenge (page 11-18 of PDF), learners design and build a Landing Pod for a model Lunar Rover (previously built in activity on page 1-10 of PDF).
