In this activity, learners explore how the power of the sun can be harnessed to heat and cool a building.

In this activity, learners investigate various appliances and electronics, discovering how much energy each uses and how much carbon dioxide (CO2) is released to produce that energy.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls.

In this activity, learners explore motion, energy, and electricity by constructing bottle cars that run on motors.

Learners build a wind turbine and test it to see how much energy is created.

Learners attach an egg to a rubber-band bungee cord and drop the egg.

In this activity, learners explore the design of rubber band powered cars. Learners work in teams of "engineers" to design and build their own rubber band cars out of everyday items.

In this activity, learners build a simple mechanism that regulates the "escape" of energy released by a falling weight by portioning it into discrete amounts.

In this activity, learners burn a peanut, which produces a flame that can be used to boil away water and count the calories contained in the peanut.

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this activity, learners experiment with hydrogen peroxide, vinegar, yeast, and baking soda to produce hot and cold reactions. Use this activity to demonstrate exothermic and endothermic reactions.

In this indoor or outdoor demonstration, use a large and small ball to illustrate conservation of energy and momentum.

In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

In this activity, learners build styrofoam boats powered by twisted rubber bands.
