Parachuting Pinwheel
Source Institutions
Build a pinwheel that works without wind! This activity contains steps on how to build a parachuting pinwheel out of paper, a film canister, and some brads.

Kick Stick Challenge
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners investigate series circuits and motors to build a hand-held "kick stick." Their goal is create a battery-operated device that sends a Ping-Pong ball across

Tangram Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use tangrams ( 7-piece puzzle tiles) to assemble a variety of shapes. Tangrams are ideal for improving spatial reasoning and geometry properties.

Sizing Up Temperature
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore Charles' Law in a syringe.

Tissue Paper Parachute
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a parachute out of tissue paper, tape, and string. Then, learners test their parachute to see how many paper clips it can carry.

Pop Fly
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners invent a way to send a Ping-Pong ball flying high enough to catch it - like football with a twist!

Make Recycled Paper
Source Institutions
Learners shred used paper, add water, and blend it into pulp. They then strain and roll the pulp out to make new paper.

Kicking Machine
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a machine that kicks a Ping-Pong ball into a cup lying on its side 12 inches away.

Self-Assembly Game
