In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

In this activity, learners discover that some things only stand up while they are spinning.

In this activity, learners build a simple tabletop seesaw to test how different variables (the position of the fulcrum, distance, weight) affect its balance under increasing weight loads.

In this activity, learners make mobiles to explore the concepts of balance, counterbalance, weight, and counterweight.

In this design activity, learners create a vehicle that can transport a load, like a favorite toy or as a recycled object, from the top of a zipline to the bottom using only gravity.

In this activity (page 4), learners work in groups to plan and build large structures using recyclable materials they have brought from home.
