In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.

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

Backyard Biodiesel
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a small batch of biodiesel that will work in any diesel engine. Learners use an old juice bottle as a "reactor" vessel to chemically process vegetable oil into fuel.

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.

Rubberband Rockets
Source Institutions
This fun and simple activity is a rubberband rocket design challenge! Learners will explore how tail fins can help to stabilize a flying object, while also exploring potential and kinetic energy.

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
