In this activity, learners work with an adult to build a rocket and launcher out of a plastic 2-liter bottle, flexible plastic hose, plastic tubing, toilet paper tube, and duct tape.

In this activity, learners build an electric two-paddle boat using paint paddles, plastic knives, and empty water bottles.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design and construct a windmill to harness the power of wind.

In this activity (on page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick), learners will investigate the transfer of energy using sports equipment.

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

This is a quick, yet dramatic activity/demonstration that introduces learners to the concept of energy transfer. A small ball is placed on top of a large ball and both are dropped together.

In this activity, learners build an old-fashioned paddle boat out of simple materials.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from

In this activity, learners build a special rolling can that returns back to you when you push it forward. Use this activity to demonstrate the transfer of energy between kinetic and potential energy.

In this activity, learners build a Wilberforce Pendulum, a special coupled pendulum in which energy is transferred between two modes of vibration, longitudinal ("bounce') and torsional ("twist"), on a

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

In this activity, learners explore how two cylinders that look the same may roll down a ramp at different rates.

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