In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process (EDP)—the process engineers use to solve design challenges.

In this activity (25th on the page) about learning and memory, learners explore a training method that animal trainers employ called "shaping." Working in pairs, learners will attempt to "shape" each

In this activity, learners drop impactors onto layers of graham crackers!

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

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

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Surface Area Activity) about surface area to volume ratio.

This activity demonstrates the importance of wearing a helmet to protect the brain. An egg is used to symbolize a head with the shell as the skull and the inside of the egg as the brain.

In this activity on page 9 of the PDF, learners test how flavoring extracts move through the walls of a balloon.

This activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity) is a full inquiry investigation to determine the age of fossils based on where they are discovered.
