This design challenge is an open-ended exploration of linkages, a group of parts connected by hinges, and the types of motion they can create.

This activity (on page 2) explores how sensing is part of robotics. Learners try tying their shoes with different constraints.

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.

In this hands-on activity, learners use an assortment of (mainly household) items to complete Rube Goldberg-type challenges.

In this activity, learners build mini catapults using paint paddles and a spoon. Use this activity to introduce learners to forces and projectile motion.

In this fun and, at times, hilarious force and motion activity, learners will use household objects to build a crazy contraption and see how far they can get a tennis ball to move.

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