In this engineering activity, learners investigate the differences between the strength of bridges made from flat and round building materials.

This is an activity about waves. Using marbles, paper clips and rubber bands, learners explore how waves behave.

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

In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

In this engineering activity, learners test the stability of towers they build out of cups, discovering that structures with more mass in the base are more stable.

In this activity, learners design a bicycle helmet. Participants will explore the design of bicycle helmets to gain an appreciation for the role that helmet layers play protecting the head.

In this geology and engineering activity (page 7 of the PDF), learners build an earthquake simulator, then use it to test various building designs, exploring different materials, shapes, and design op

This is an activity about rockets. Learners will explore how rockets leave Earth's orbit and what it takes to make a launch successful.

In this physics activity, learners will build their own parachutes out of tissue paper. They will explore the effects of weight, height, and design on the parachutes' speed and stability.

In this activity, learners explore why frost forms. They create their own frost using a solution of ice water and salt in a glass.

In this physics activity, learners will investigate the strength of egg shells.
