In this highly physical outdoor activity, learners construct and compare experimental trail sections to select the best trail-construction technique for their site.

A design challenge that takes paper airplanes into an entirely different direction: a magnus glider uses cups and and rubber bands to create a glider that uses the same forces that a curveball (from b

In this activity, learners will trick out their bike with crafts and flair. Learners will explore symmetry, cause and effect and design through this activity.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from

Learners trace, cut out and fly a boomerang, outdoors or in a large indoor space.

In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

Use this Moon Map Guide to help learners identify features on the Moon, while looking through a telescope.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.

Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.
