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

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

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to construct a paper bridge that can support 100 pennies.

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 outdoor activity, learners discover how the environment around a building affects the growth of plants.

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

In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to build a tower out of 10 sheets of newspaper and 3 feet of masking tape, which can hold a golf ball balancing at the top.

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

In this activity, learners explore different ways to stack cups to meet a personal goal.

Build a house you can fit inside, using cardboard tubes.
