Learners work in pairs to design, construct, and test a device that exhibits positive, neutral, and negative buoyancy. They test a number of different objects in water to see if they sink or float.

In this activity (on pages 15-18 of PDF), learners make a life-size two-dimensional paper model of their own skeletons.

In this engineering design activity, learners will design, test, and build a “haunting machine” to solve a Sherlockian mystery.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.
