Build and test a scale model of a rainforest canopy walkway.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners illustrate the effect of the weight of air over our heads.

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 explore how and why weight distribution works.

In this activity, learners use recycled materials to build a bridge that holds as many potatoes as possible. They investigate weight, height, strength, and measurement as they seek design solutions.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

Learners will do an experiment to determine which type of paper is strongest while focusing on variables and collecting data.

In this engineering/design/arts and crafts activity, learners design and build "platforms" or "bridges" that can hold weight, and test which glue makes the strongest structure.

In this activity, learners make mobiles to explore the concepts of balance, counterbalance, weight, and counterweight.

In this activity, learners use design thinking to design and build their own bridge out of household materials including adhesives and/or connectors.
