This event guide features three related explorations in which learners investigate the following science concepts: how you design and build a structure helps determine how strong it will be; different

In this activity, learners will build the highest tower they can out of recycled materials.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.

In this activity, learners use information gathered from a variety of sources to design and make their own insect.

In this activity, learners build bridges using paper and explore how much weight each bridge design can support.

In this activity, learners make or use pre-made clay beams to scale and proportion. Specifically, they discover that when you scale up proportionally (i.e.

In this activity learners will build a neighborhood out of blocks and cardboard.

In this activity, learners explore what makes a boat float and sink. They examine and test various objects to determine why objects float or sink.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.
