Stack 'Em Up
Source Institutions
In this simple and fun activity, learners build a tower of cups to explore distribution of weight. Learners make predictions about their towers and test their designs.
Screaming String Thing
Source Institutions
In this simple and fun activity, learners discover the relationship between vibration and sound by making a squeaky toy instrument out of simple household materials.
Super Golf Tower
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity, challenge learners to build a tower out of 10 sheets of newspaper and 3 feet of masking tape, which can hold a golf ball balancing at the top.
Spool Racer
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.
Drops on a Penny
Source Institutions
In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.
Balloon Drive
Source Institutions
In this challenge, learners make a helium balloon hover in one spot and then move it through an obstacle course using air currents.
String Thing
Source Institutions
String Thing is an interactive online game in which learners change a virtual string's tension, length, and gauge to create different musical pitches.
Drip Drop
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.
Periscope
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners build a spy tool to secretly view things over walls or around corners.
Gumdrop Dome
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity, learners construct sturdy geodesic structures out of gumdrops and toothpicks. Use this activity to explore engineering principles as well as sturdy shapes and triangles.
Throw Your Weight Around
Source Institutions
During this activity, learners take part in a variety of tasks which involve moving and balancing different body parts.
Can Car
Source Institutions
