In this activity, learners explore how engineering has impacted the development of bridges over time, including innovative designs and the challenge of creating bridges that become landmarks for a cit

In this activity, learners explore force and motion by constructing cardboard cars that are propelled by balloons.

In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.

Learners explore the field of civil engineering by making a bridge using spaghetti as their primary building material.

This activity provides instructions for making an aircraft that can really fly using a straw and paper hoops!

In this activity, learners use design thinking to design and build their own bridge out of household materials including adhesives and/or connectors.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

This activity teaches combustion as the interaction of a fuel source and oxygen.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

In this activity, learners make and test fly paper helicopters. Learners use templates to create paper helicopters and then take take turns flying them in the air.

Build a car that runs on air. Using household materials, experiment with the power of air to create thrust powerful enough to move a homemade car.

In this activity, learners work in teams to build and test paper airplanes. Learners try to fly their airplanes directly on the runway and earn points for accuracy.

In this activity, learners will create a model rocket out of an inflated balloon attached to a straw on a taught string.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a race-car out of a coffee can and rubber band. Demonstrate motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy and friction.

In this activity, learners explore work, forces, simple machines, and construction. This lesson guide includes simple ways to demonstrate these principles as well as hands-on activities.
