In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

Build and test a scale model of a rainforest canopy walkway.

In this activity about living things and gravity (page 5 of PDF), learners design and build an exoskeleton or an endoskeleton for an animal of their own invention.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to conduct a series of experiments using a balloon, drinking straw, and paper.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

In this activity, learners shrink the scale of the vast solar system to the size of their neighborhood.

Learners will build and experiment with their own windmills made from simple household materials.

In this two-part activity about luminescence, learners explore the chemistry that happens inside glow sticks and other light producing reactions.

In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this design-based lesson, learners study flood dynamics as they modify a riverbed with blockages or levees to simulate real-world scenarios.

This activity helps learners visualize the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) by constructing three-dimensional HIV particle models from paper.

In this activity, learners work in teams to construct human lung models from small plastic beverage bottles and balloons.

In this activity, learners plan and create a 24-foot long, two-dimensional model of our solar system, and compare and contrast the differences between planets and the sun.

In this activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

In this activity, learners are introduced to robotic submarines called gliders. Learners make “gliders” from plastic syringes and compare these to Cartesian bottles and plastic bubbles.

In this activity, learners model how the Moon's volcanic period reshaped its earlier features.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore what it means to work together as a team.

In this activity, learners consider how a simple machine, a lever, turns a small push or pull (a small force) into a larger--or stronger--push or pull (a larger force).

Learners work in pairs to create three simple types of bridges, a beam bridge, an arch bridge, and a suspension bridge.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils by making cast models of a T. rex. First, learners read about and research how dinosaur fossils form.
