Using paper, paper clips, an index card, and tape, teams of learners design flying devices to (1) stay in the air as long as possible and (2) land as close as possible to a given target.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a rubber band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

Learners follow the template to build and fly a paper helicopter.

In this simple activity, learners discover how a mere piece of paper can be used to hold up the weight of a heavy book.

Learners build at least two different spinners (tops) to investigate how mass distribution, size, and shape affect the length of time the spinner spins.

In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to construct a paper bridge that can support 100 pennies.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to build a tower out of 10 sheets of newspaper and 3 feet of masking tape, which can hold a golf ball balancing at the top.
