From Here to There
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.
Rescue Mission
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.
Boats Afloat
Source Institutions
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.
Watercraft
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.
Touch Down
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.
As the Rotor Turns: Wind Power and You
Source Institutions
In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from
Making Rivers
Source Institutions
In this outdoor water activity, learners explore how to change the direction of water flow. Learners make puddles in dirt or use existing puddles and sticks to make water flow.
Sky Floater Challenge
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners make a balloon hover at eye level for five seconds, and then make it move by creating air currents.
