In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?

In this project, students explore how levers work, by making a puppet with moving limbs.

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

In this activity about living things and gravity (page 5 of PDF), learners design and build an exoskeleton or an endoskeleton for an animal of their own invention.

In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

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.

Learners will build and experiment with their own windmills made from simple household materials.

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

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.

In this activity, learners consider how a simple machine, a lever, turns a small push or pull (a small force) into a larger--or stronger--push or pull (a larger force).

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.
