In this activity, learners thread gumdrops together to make a model of a polymer.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

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.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have developed big wheels or Ferris wheels.

In this activity, learners separate the components of Gatorade using a home-made affinity column.

In this quick activity about pollutants and groundwater (page 2 of PDF under Water Clean-up Activity), learners build a model well with a toilet paper tube.

In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.

In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.
