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

Design a vessel that tests the limits of wind power given a set of off the shelf and recycled materials.

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.

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

In this activity about light and refraction, learners discover how a lens creates an image that hangs in midair.

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.

This activity helps students learn how computers "compress" text by identifying repeating patterns of letters, words, and phrases.

In this design challenge, learners build a boat that paddles itself using a rubber band as its power source.

In this activity, learners will learn about a person they admire (famous, family or otherwise) or even themselves and create a life-sized silhouette.

Learners drop two different masses of play dough and observe how long it takes them to hit the ground.

In this math activity (Page 17 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "baseball" and analyze the results of the game.

In this activity (15th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners use glue and cardboard to construct a maze they use with their eyes closed.

In this activity, learners create night lights using a plastic cup, programmable PICO Cricket, tri-color LED, and sensor.

In this activity, learners create painting machines that can paint moving forwards and backwards.

In this genetics activity, learners discover how to extract DNA from green split peas.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a way to send a Ping-Pong ball flying high enough to catch it - like football with a twist!

In this activity, learners will trick out their bike with crafts and flair. Learners will explore symmetry, cause and effect and design through this activity.

In this activity, learners will explore nature by creating food for birds. Learners will develop fine motor skills and engage in nature observation through this activity.
