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.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, learners will explore the water cycle by creating a small atmosphere.

In this activity, learners will explore what a constellation is and make their own.

In this engineering design challenge, learners make a bird and then control its flight with attached strings.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

Learners discover that soap can be used to power a boat. Learners make a simple, flat boat model, put it in water, and then add a drop of detergent at the back of the boat.

In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

In this activity, learners will discover how our universe is continuously expanding.

In this activity, learners will explore engineering concepts to construct a blanket fort using materials sourced from home.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

In this activity, learners will create their very own constellation.

In this activity, learners make film canister rocket ships. A fin pattern is glued onto the outside of the canister, and fuel (water and half an antacid tablet) is mixed inside the canister.

In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.

In this activity, learners engineer a paper helicopter that spins to the ground when dropped.

In this activity, learners will explore how light can refract or break apart into different colors.

In this activity (located on page 6 of PDF), learners observe and reproduce the distinctive physical features (i.e. plates, sharp spikes, long necks, deep jaws, claws) of their favorite dinosaurs.

Learners will construct a model of a heart valve using a film canister, a piece of masking tape, and a piece of paper.
