This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Luge) is a full inquiry-based challenge related to motion and design optimization.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

Learners use engineering design principles to construct and test a fully solar-powered car. Solar car kits usually include a photovoltaic cell and motor; some include a chassis as well.
