This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

This activity (on page 2) explores how sensing is part of robotics. Learners try tying their shoes with different constraints.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Hockey Sticks Activity) about composites, materials made of 2 or more different components.

In this math lesson, learners analyze the density of liquids in order to explore linear functions.

In this math lesson, learners explore polynomial and rational function patterns.

In this environmental science activity, learners research what is essential for plant life and the necessary components of soil to support plants.

Learners recreate the classic egg-drop experiment with an analogy to the Mars rover landing. The concept of terminal velocity will be introduced, and learners perform several velocity calculations.

Align four color transparencies, each one a single color (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black), and see a beautiful full color image.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this activity, learners "dance" (move back and forth at varying speeds) by reading a graph. This is a kinesthetic way to help learners interpret and understand how motion is graphed.

This activity is on page 3 (continued on page 2) of the pdf, part of the Simple Machines Discovery Box. In this fun activity, learners "create" a complex machine by simulating the parts in action.

In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.

In this fun activity about spiders, learners build and design a spider from cardstock, straw, string, and pipe cleaners.

Make a kite out of a garbage bag, shower curtain, painting tarp--anything light, thin, flexible and plastic!

In this sports-themed engineering activity, learners create super bouncy balls out of balloons. Learners brainstorm, test their designs, and share results.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

This activity has three story puzzles learners can solve to learn about life in the Arctic.

In this design challenge, leaners attempt to build a strong structure out of LEGO® bricks that can withstand a 4-foot drop.

Oboes's unique sound originates from the two small reeds a musician blows into. Make your own double reed instrument out of straw!

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