This is an activity about motion, power, air and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

In this activity on page 13 of the PDF, use a special plastic card that has been painted with a chemical that changes color when it is in UV light.

In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

In this activity, learners construct speedy vehicles made out of paper plates and powered by twisted rubber bands.

This activity demonstrates the importance of wearing a helmet to protect the brain. An egg is used to symbolize a head with the shell as the skull and the inside of the egg as the brain.

In this activity, learners build a kite out of paper, change it, and try to make it fly even better. With their new knowledge of kite making, students can then go on to create their own kite designs.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners make their own Sun tracker to explore how ancient civilizations around the world studied the Sun.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.

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 math lesson, learners participate in a variety of activities that give them experience in recognizing, describing, and extending repeating and arithmetic patterns.
