In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Lift Off), learners will use the ever-popular soda geyser experiment to test the reactivity of the various sugar candies or mints.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

In this activity, learners build styrofoam boats powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a race-car out of a coffee can and rubber band. Demonstrate motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy and friction.

Experiment with force and pressure by building a balloon rocket. When launched, the balloon will run a track wherever you place the string.

In this environmental engineering activity, learners build windmills using everyday items. The first challenge is to build windmills that spin when placed in front of a fan.

Learners design and build a roller coaster using simple materials. Learners experiment with potential and kinetic energy to get a marble to follow a track into a cup.

In this activity, learners explore work, forces, simple machines, and construction. This lesson guide includes simple ways to demonstrate these principles as well as hands-on activities.

In this activity, learners design, build, test and redesign a display tower that will meet a specific set of criteria and constraints.
