In this activity, learners make plates levitate! Learners build "hovercrafts" using simple materials to explore friction and motion.

In this design challenge activity, learners use a balloon and other simple materials to design an air-powered rocket that can hit a distant target.

In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make and race a balloon-powered car. Learners construct the body out of a paper cup, wheels out of wooden spools. and fuel tank out of a balloon.

In this activity, learners build a racecar using only a rubber band, spool, straw, and paper clip! This racer is a classic toy that zips across a flat surface.

In this design challenge, learners build a boat that paddles itself using a rubber band as its power source.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a device to carry a Ping-Pong ball from the top of a zip line to the bottom in four seconds (or less!).

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to design a car using only 3 straws, 4 Lifesavers™, 1 piece of paper, 2 paper clips, tape, and scissors.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

In this activity, learners construct and launch rockets using simple materials and their understanding of chemical reactions.

In this activity, learners construct paper airplanes that twist and turn.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a car that can travel at least four feet using rubber band power and use the design process to debug problems.

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 design challenge activity, learners build a car that uses a battery-operated motor to "drive" at least ten feet.
