In this activity, learners will engineer their own weather vane. This activity includes step-by-step instructions with pictures and a "What's Happening?" section explaining how the activity worked.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners build rockets and shoot them into the air by stomping on the plastic bottle launchers.

In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.
