Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

Learners use engineering design principles to construct and test a fully solar-powered car. Solar car kits usually include a photovoltaic cell and motor; some include a chassis as well.

Learners design and create musical instruments from common objects; their challenge is to create an instrument that can make three different tones.

In this math activity related to light, learners assemble a photometer and use it to estimate the power output of the Sun.
