Robot Hands
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2) explores how sensing is part of robotics. Learners try tying their shoes with different constraints.
Running in Circles
Source Institutions
In this group activity, learners use some common objects and work together to simulate the Coriolis effect. During the challenge, learners make predictions and test different scenarios.
Egg Drop
Source Institutions
Perform this classic inertia demonstration to illustrate the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.
Hot Air Balloon
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a hot air balloon using just a few sheets of tissue paper and a hair dryer.
On Target
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners modify a cup so it can carry a marble down a zip line and also drop it onto a target.
Catapult
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build mini catapults using paint paddles and a spoon. Use this activity to introduce learners to forces and projectile motion.
Potato Straw
Source Institutions
In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to insert a straw the furthest into a potato.
Cable Car
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.
Bouncing Yo-Yo
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.
