In this activity (located on pages 23-24 of the PDF), learners are introduced to structural engineering and encouraged to practice goal-oriented building.

In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

In this engineering activity (page 2 of PDF), young learners investigate how a wide base can make a building more stable. Learners use blocks or boxes of different sizes to construct stable towers.

In this activity, learners will use household items to design and build an elevator that will carry 2 passengers to a height of 16 inches...or higher!

Learners work in groups to construct bridges using stale marshmallows and toothpicks.

Learners explore the Bernoulli effect by building an airfoil (airplane wing) and making it fly.

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

In this project, students explore how levers work, by making a puppet with moving limbs.

In this engineering activity, young learners investigate multi-level buildings.
