In this activity, learners build a carousel toy that spins when pushed down.

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

Learners explore magnetism and motion as they build a simple marble run. Learners test different arrangements of plastic and cardboard tubes, bottles, and cups on a magnetic board.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how brakes can stop or slow mechanical motion.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of rotational equilibrium. Learners work in teams to estimate and determine the force within a mobile design.

In this design challenge activity, learners add a jet-propulsion system (i.e. a balloon) to a blimp so it flies straight and far under its own power.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this activity, learners construct cars that are powered by hand-made, electric propellers.
