In this activity, learners will explore acid-base reactions and create their own bubbly results.

In this activity, learners make a model of the solid Earth's layers that's good enough to eat! Learners use tasty foodstuffs to simulate Earth's inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust.

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

In this activity, learners are challenged to create a parachute using easily sourced materials in order to transport a LEGO figure safely to the ground.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

In this activity, learners build their your own seismograph with household materials to document shaking.

In this activity, learners will learn how to knit using only their hands. Learners will explore patterns and fabrication as well as develop fine motor skills and patience through this activity.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a device to carry a Ping-Pong ball from the top of a zip line to the bottom in four seconds (or less!).

In this activity, learners build a seesaw powered by magnets.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate how pollution diffuses through ground material.

In this activity, learners will use a compact disc to build an air puck that can glide across a smooth tabletop. The puck glides with almost no friction on a cushion of air escaping from a balloon.

Learners design different shaped bandages for different purposes. First, they draw their designs on paper.

Make a model city happier with LEDs, circuits, motors, and batteries! Groups can think, discuss, design, and build what would make a community happy. Kids can work as part of a team or on their own.

In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

In this experiment, learners will explore whether increased carbon dioxide makes our oceans more basic or more acidic.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

In this activity (on pages 11-12 of PDF) learners create models of lava layers that have formed on the moon.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover how the environment around a building affects the growth of plants.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

In this activity, learners will repurpose an old t-shirt to create their own yarn or string.
