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

In this activity (located on page 9 of the PDF), learners are introduced to Aesop's fable, "The Crow and the Pitcher." In the story, a clever crow drops pebbles into a pitcher to cause the water level

This activity puts a mathematical twist on the familiar “guessing jar.” No guesses allowed, estimates only.

Learners classify a variety of objects by their characteristics. They then design an experiment to determine which objects float or sink in water and add this characteristic to their classification.

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.

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

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

In this activity, learners examine the culture and history of the tomb site.

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

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

In this activity, learners use two different techniques to estimate how many little things fit into one bigger thing.

In this activity (page 23 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to determine how the size and mass of a projectile affects the area and the volume of an impact crater.
