In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

This activity provides instructions for learners to create models of the Earth and then to model a "day" on Earth as well as modeling the seasons.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners make 3-dimensional models of the Earth and Moon.

In this activity (page 95 of the PDF), learners create Escher Staircase models similar to those that were used by Neurolab's Spatial Orientation Team to investigate the processing of information about

In this activity, learners use sand and ice cubes to create a model of permafrost and the effects of the ice melting through the surface.

Learners build a model of the planets in the solar system. In their model, the planets are spaced in their relative distance from the Sun.

In this activity, learners build a paper model of the spacecraft and photometer (telescope) used during NASA's Kepler Mission.

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

Using simple materials, learners will construct the end effector (grasping device) of a robotic arm and use the device to capture and pick up an object.

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.
