In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

In this design challenge activity, learners use two helium-filled balloons to build a blimp that can travel in a straight path across the room.

The goal of this activity is to build a miniature bobsled that is either the fastest or the slowest. Learners use recycled materials to design, build, and test their bobsled on a bobsled track.

In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.
