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

Paper Mache Dinosaurs
Source Institutions
In this activity (located on page 6 of PDF), learners observe and reproduce the distinctive physical features (i.e. plates, sharp spikes, long necks, deep jaws, claws) of their favorite dinosaurs.

Teen Moon: Moon Ooze
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners model how the Moon's volcanic period reshaped its earlier features.

Levers at Play

In this activity, learners explore how wind tunnels provide feedback to engineers about the performance and durability of products such as planes, cars, and buildings.

Comparing Sizes of Microorganisms
Source Institutions
In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

Clipper Creations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a working model of a nail clipper. This activity helps learners learn the basic principles of simple machines, engineering design and model building.

Shaking It!
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

Balloon Bugs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make balloon models of disease-causing bacteria.
