Learners use a spring scale to drag an object such as a ceramic coffee cup along a table top or the floor.

Learners conduct four simple experiments to demonstrate the effects of air pressure.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this activity, learners build their own construction cranes using tongue depressors and pushpins.

In this activity, learners build mini-basketball courts using cardboard and measuring spoons. Use this activity to introduce learners to catapults, forces, and levers.

In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

Learners explore the field of civil engineering by making a bridge using spaghetti as their primary building material.

In this activity, learners construct cars that are powered by hand-made, electric propellers.

Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

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

In this environmental engineering activity, learners build windmills using everyday items. The first challenge is to build windmills that spin when placed in front of a fan.

In this activity, learners design, build, test and redesign a display tower that will meet a specific set of criteria and constraints.
