In this design challenge, leaners attempt to build a strong structure out of LEGO® bricks that can withstand a 4-foot drop.

In this activity, learners will explore how and why weight distribution works.

In this activity, learners will engineer a roof using simple materials to protect a construction paper person from a rainstorm.

In this activity learners will build roller coasters and test them using small balls or marbles.

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

In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

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 activity, learners design and build their own parachute using household materials with the goal of landing their passenger safely on a target.

In this activity, learners will build a stomp-powered launcher to blast off paper rockets they design. Materials can be found at a local hardware store or you may already have them at home.
