In this math lesson, learners count and compare amounts of money less than or equal to one dollar.

In this activity, learners discover that some things only stand up while they are spinning.

In this activity, learners create a mind and math puzzle that requires a three-dimensional solution.

Groups of learners are provided with a generic car base and an egg. Their mission: design a device/enclosure to protect the egg on or in the car as it rolls down a ramp with increasing slopes.

In this activity, learners investigate the properties of different types of balls.

In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

In this activity, learners construct their own small catapults using simple materials. Learners follow visual instructions to build their launching device.

In this activity, learners use ABS pipe and an air leaf blower to make a strong shooting machine.

In this activity, learners build a recording timer made from simple materials (e.g., small dc motor, sharpie pen, craft sticks, adding machine paper tape, etc.).

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites) is a full inquiry investigation into how a kite’s shape affects its performance.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of rotational equilibrium. Learners work in teams to estimate and determine the force within a mobile design.

In this activity, learners investigate visual perception as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

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 create 3D geometric shapes using straws and pipe cleaners.

In this activity, learners build and play three math games. In the first game, called "Switcheroo," learners place marbles in holes 1 through 4 and 7 through 10.

In this math lesson, learners participate in a variety of activities that give them experience in recognizing, describing, and extending repeating and arithmetic patterns.

In this math lesson, learners practice estimation and measurement skills as they move from station to station calculating length, volume, weight, and area.

In this robotics activity, learners drive a remote-controlled car through a course to learn the challenges faced while trying to operate a planetary rover.

Build your own version of a favorite carnival game, in which a marble races down a maze consisting of rows of nails.

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.
