In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and a dig site. Learners work in groups to analyze a dig site map and match bones to a skeletal drawing of Kelsey (a Triceratops).

This lab activity has learners create a pendulum with a one-second period.

This simple construction activity teaches the importance of architectural structure. Learners build and test designs for a paper "doghouse" strong enough to hold the weight of a jumbo dog biscuit.

In this activity, learners will design a protective package for an egg that will allow the egg to withstand a fall without cracking.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this math lesson, learners compare products to determine the best product.

In this math lesson, learners identify, describe, and construct the five regular polyhedra.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.

Learners can program a compass to draw a circle by itself using a Pico Cricket, some Legos, and lots of tape! Pico Cricket is required.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

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

In this activity, learners explore how mirrors reflect light and change the way we see things.

In this activity, learners try to float ink on the surface of water to create a pattern and then capture it with absorbent paper.

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

In this math lesson, learners practice measurement skills as they examine a soap bubble print. Learners follow a recipe to make a soap bubble solution.

From this How To slide show, you create an Audio Tape Bow that can play distorted audio sounds by running it across a tape head.

Learners apply their knowledge of heat transfer to design two cans - one that will retain heat and one that will cool down quickly.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.
