Learners use shop tools and various materials to construct a magnetic spinner and a compass.

Groups of learners are provided with a generic car base and an egg. Their mission: design a device/enclosure to protect the egg on or in the car as it rolls down a ramp with increasing slopes.

In this activity, learners construct a simple game to test their hand-eye coordination and steadiness of hand.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls.

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 activity, learners explore motion, energy, and electricity by constructing bottle cars that run on motors.

In this activity, learners construct speedy vehicles made out of paper plates and powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of friction and how ball bearings reduce friction.

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

In this exploratory activity, learners experiment, observe and determine how various toys change from one form of energy to another.

Learners use a spring scale to drag an object such as a ceramic coffee cup along a table top or the floor.

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.
