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

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

In this activity, learners investigate color vision as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and experiment with different materials to create bug hats.

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

In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.

In this three/four-day lesson, learners calculate perimeters and areas and draw the castle plan to scale.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this activity, learners make a barometer, an instrument to measure change in air pressure.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a device that will make their friends and family ask, "What's buzzing?" Learners design an alarm with an on/off switch that is small enough to hide.

In this activity about transfer of energy, learners get to build their own catapult using nothing more than a plastic spoon and some tape.

In this activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

In this activity, learners examine ways that Native Americans of the Southwest express their relationship with nature through art.

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

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

In this activity learners will build a neighborhood out of blocks and cardboard.

In this activity, learners use a compass, powerful magnet, and copper magnet wire to build a special generator known as a dynamo.

In this activity, learners will make a marionette puppet and put on a show. Learners will explore color, design, fabrication and storytelling through this activity.
