In this activity, learners explore how the power of the sun can be harnessed to heat and cool a building.

In this design-based activity, learners explore environments, ecosystems, energy flow and organism interactions by creating a model biodome. Learners become engineers who create model ecosystems.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design, build and test a birdhouse that will stay cool in the sun.

In this design challenge activity, learners design and build a solar hot water heater. Their goal is to create a heater that yields the highest temperature change.

In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.

In this activity, learners investigate passive solar building design with a focus solely on heating.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Lift Off) is a full inquiry investigation into the engineering challenges of sending scientific sensors into space.
