Paper Bridges
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build bridges using paper and explore how much weight each bridge design can support.

Garden Poles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.

Build A Dome
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the structural strength of triangles by creating their own free-standing geodesic dome out of plastic straws.

Breaking Beams
Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.

Skewers and Garden Poles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.
