In this lesson, learners develop a robot arm using common materials. Learners explore design, construction, and teamwork, as well as materials selection and use.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this design challenge, learners build a boat that paddles itself using a rubber band as its power source.

In this activity, learners design miniature cars. Learners can create a telephone car, soccer car, merry-go-round car, or any other theme car they can imagine.

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 design challenge activity, learners build a tower that’s at least 12 inches high with two or more parts that move (spin, sway, or flap) in the wind.

In this design challenge activity, learners use two helium-filled balloons to build a blimp that can travel in a straight path across the room.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a tower that can support a tennis ball at least 18 inches off the ground while withstanding the wind from a fan.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.
