In this technology activity, learners light up the room with electrifying play dough creations. Learners use conductive and insulating homemade play dough to build simple circuits.

Make your own "Dance Dance Revolution" dance pad! In this design challenge activity, learners work in teams to build a dance pad that lets you use your feet to sound a buzzer or flash a light.

Cool off in the heat with this project! Learners use simple materials to build a fan that runs on a motor.

In this activity, learners explore the parts of a circuit by modeling, as a group, a “human” circuit.

In this technology activity, learners build simple circuits, design soft circuits using conductive thread, and then sew switch-activated circuits.

Create gas with a glass of water, some wire, conductors and a battery! You will be separating water (H2O) into oxygen and hydrogen.

In this activity, learners explore an everyday situation, where either of two or more buttons can ring a buzzer.

In this activity, learners build a switch to turn electrical circuits on and off.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of conducting or insulating electricity.

In this demonstration, cook a cake using the heat produced when the cake batter conducts an electric current.

In this activity about electricity, learners imagine that they are out in the wilderness and it is getting dark. Their task is to use the materials supplied to build a simple flashlight.

In this activity, learners create a battery from fruit. This activity helps learners explore electricity, electrochemistry, and series circuits as well as the process of scientific inquiry.

Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

In this activity about electricity, learners identify closed and open circuits. First, learners examine and label diagrams of open and closed circuits.

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this activity, learners build an electromagnet using a nail, a cork, a battery, and electrical wire. Use this activity to demonstrate how electric currents produce magnet fields.

In this technology activity, learners build an "alarming" doormat to keep siblings out of their rooms. Use this activity to teach learners about circuits, switches, and sensors.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a car that uses a battery-operated motor to "drive" at least ten feet.

In this activity, learners demonstrate and discuss simple circuits as well as the differences between parallel and serial circuit design and functions.
