Build a Roller Coaster
Source Institutions
Learners design and build a roller coaster using simple materials. Learners experiment with potential and kinetic energy to get a marble to follow a track into a cup.

Puppet Power
Source Institutions
In this mechanical engineering activity, learners design shadow puppets with moving parts and use them to tell stories.

Sustainable Grazing
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.

Grab and Go
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity, learners design and build a mechanical arm to lift a small item.

Soccer Kicks
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick) is a full inquiry investigation into transfer of motion.

Delivery Capsules
Source Institutions
Learners make self-assembled polymer spheres as a model for the lipid nanoparticles found in COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.

Infrared Investigations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how infrared technology is used by engineers to create equipment and systems for a variety of industries.

Light Box
Source Institutions
Learn how to construct a light box by following simple figures and instructions. This guide includes tips on how to assemble a light box; related activities are featured in separate resources.

Series and Parallel Circuits
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners demonstrate and discuss simple circuits as well as the differences between parallel and serial circuit design and functions.

Shipwrecked!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners are challenged to design and build the tools they need to survive being shipwrecked on a deserted island.

Conveyor Engineering
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind the conveyor belt and consider the impact this invention has had on transportation and the coordinated shipping and delivery of goods.

Building an Army
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the potential of interchangeable standard parts to create a large number of unique creations in different combinations.

Pop Fly
Source Institutions
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!

Bike Bling
Source Institutions
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.

Make Recycled Paper
Source Institutions
Learners shred used paper, add water, and blend it into pulp. They then strain and roll the pulp out to make new paper.

For the Birds
Source Institutions
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.

Kicking Machine
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a machine that kicks a Ping-Pong ball into a cup lying on its side 12 inches away.

Self-Assembly Game
Source Institutions
This is a quick game about self-assembly (page 2 of PDF under Self-Assembly Activity). Like the molecules of DNA, learners will self-assemble into a pattern by following a simple set of rules.

Exploring Black Holes and Gravity
Source Institutions
This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners imagine what would happen if our Sun were replaced with a black hole.

Model Well
Source Institutions
In this quick activity about pollutants and groundwater (page 2 of PDF under Water Clean-up Activity), learners build a model well with a toilet paper tube.
