Draft Detectives
Source Institutions
In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

As Straight as a Pole
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

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

Block Neighborhood
Source Institutions
In this activity learners will build a neighborhood out of blocks and cardboard.

Cardboard Sculptures
Source Institutions
Learners explore the endless possibilities of cardboard engineering in this open-ended STEAM activity. Practice being creative by building structures with no glue, only cardboard and scissors.

Family Fort Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore engineering concepts to construct a blanket fort using materials sourced from home.

Building Tall
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity (page 2 of PDF), young learners investigate how a wide base can make a building more stable. Learners use blocks or boxes of different sizes to construct stable towers.
