In this engineering design activity, learners will design, test, and build a “haunting machine” to solve a Sherlockian mystery.

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

In this three/four-day lesson, learners calculate perimeters and areas and draw the castle plan to scale.

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

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 four-day lesson, learners identify three-dimensional forms in castle design, research different parts of the castle with a focus on their uses, and design and enlarge a banner for the great ha

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 consider how a simple machine, a lever, turns a small push or pull (a small force) into a larger--or stronger--push or pull (a larger force).
