In this activity, learners build a game that tests their steadiness. Learners construct the game board by setting up an electrical circuit and a wand.

This activity explores the main algorithms that are used as the basis for searching on computers, using different variations on the game of battleships.

In this hands-on engineering project, kids use two simple machines, levers and inclined planes, to construct their own pinball machines.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this invention challenge activity, learners create an indoor game for one or two people that gets you moving.

This activity models the necessary balance of creating power and cleaning up its associated waste. Learners participate in a game where they attempt to move forward toward a goal.

In this on site "field trip" activity (located on pages 6-9 of PDF), learners get hands-on experience identifying building materials by playing "Building Bingo".

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a pinball-like game where a kick stick hits a ping pong ball into a target that buzzes.

In this engineering activity, learners design their own board games.

In this online game, learners must purchase power plants for their city.

In this activity learners will build structures out of blocks and then roll balls to try to knock them down.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.

This game uses a modified Uno deck to review concepts related to stem cell research and diabetes.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

In this online Flash game, learners test their engineering know-how, moving a collection of mechanical parts onto a board to make complete a system of parts that will move a ball from start to finish.

In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War) is a full inquiry investigation into tug-of-war physics. Groups of learners will test two tug-of-war strategies.

This board game teaches learners about energy decision making. Players select cards that determine the transportation and home design that will influence their expenses as they play.
