This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Hockey Sticks Activity) about composites, materials made of 2 or more different components.

Computers store drawings, photographs, and other pictures using only numbers. Through this activity, learners decode numbers to create pictures using the same process that computers use.

Learners work in pairs to create three simple types of bridges, a beam bridge, an arch bridge, and a suspension bridge.

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

This activity helps students learn how computers "compress" text by identifying repeating patterns of letters, words, and phrases.

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

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

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

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