In this activity, learners explore engineering package designs that meet the needs of safely shipping a product.

In this activity, learners build handheld rockets and launchers out of PVC pipes and plastic bottles. Use this activity to demonstrate acceleration, air pressure, and Newton's Laws of Motion.

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 activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

In this activity, learners will put a set of containers in order by capacity. Would the tallest container hold more or less water than the wide, short one?

Learners make a counting/estimating jar to exchange with friends or bring home.

In this Cyberchase activity, have fun measuring volumes and enjoy a delicious shake.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

Choose a recipe to double (or triple, quadruple, or halve). Show everyone the recipe and engage them in figuring out: How much will we need to increase the recipe to feed everyone?

In this activity, learners explore density and buoyancy as they design and construct rafts.

Learners design and create musical instruments from common objects; their challenge is to create an instrument that can make three different tones.

In this math activity related to volume, learners use problem solving skills to calculate and build a model house for Minus the dog.
