In this activity, learners make a simple spring-like scale using a rubber band instead of a spring, and calibrate the scale in newtons (N).

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.

Learners construct and use a "real" 3D coordinate system out of balsa wood and foam core. They will then be able to locate coordinates in space.

Based of the The Tech Challenge 2015, learners will engage in two mini-design challenges related to seismic engineering.

Learners build structures from spaghetti and marshmallows to determine which structures are able to handle the greatest load.

Learners build and investigate pendulums of different lengths. They discover that the longer the string of the pendulum, the longer the time it takes to swing.

Learners engage in close observation of falling objects. They determine it is the amount of air resistance, not the weight of an object, which determines how quickly an object falls.

Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

This three-part activity consists of an activity that groups of learners develop themselves, a given procedure, and an optional demonstration.
