Students design and create their own air-powered rockets, in this hands-on activity.

In this design challenge, learners use their creativity and imagination to design and test a wildlife crossing for their favorite animal.

In this demonstration, learners discover that nanoparticles behave differently, in part because they have a high surface area to volume ratio.

In this activity, learners will investigate air and gravity through the use of various fabrics by through them in the air. Activity includes step-by-step instructions and extension ideas.

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

In this design challenge, learners will practice empathy and design thinking skills by creating an invention of the future.

In this hands-on engineering project, kids use two simple machines, levers and inclined planes, to construct their own pinball machines.

This simple construction activity teaches the importance of architectural structure. Learners build and test designs for a paper "doghouse" strong enough to hold the weight of a jumbo dog biscuit.

In this math lesson, learners use the setting of a flower-making fundraiser to explore a variety of patterns. Learners examine the patterns in a flower design made of triangles surrounding a square.

In this activity, learners build a simple tabletop seesaw to test how different variables (the position of the fulcrum, distance, weight) affect its balance under increasing weight loads.

In this activity, learners design, build and test a model suspension bridge for sturdiness and strength.

In this activity, learners build a racecar using only a rubber band, spool, straw, and paper clip! This racer is a classic toy that zips across a flat surface.

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

This fun activity uses simple materials such as milk cartons and mirrors to introduce the ideas of optics and visual perception.

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

In this activity, learners will imagine the challenges and opportunities of asteroid mining.

Los jugadores toman turnos para añadir figuras de tres cuadrados a la cuadrícula. Intenten encajar sus figuras en la cuadrícula de modo que bloquee al otro jugador.

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

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.
