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

In this activity, learners build handheld rockets and launchers out of PVC pipes and plastic bottles. Use this activity to demonstrate acceleration, air pressure, and Newton's Laws of Motion.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has impacted the manufacturing of canoes over time, including the development of new, durable, and lighter materials.

In this math lesson, learners participate in several activities where they apply measurement skills.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind life vests or personal flotation devices and the challenges met by these devices.

In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.

This lesson focuses on how materials behave differently as their surface area increases.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

In this activity, learners explore how environmental engineers might approach solving the problem of an oil spill.

In this activity with several mini experiments, learners explore the chemistry that helps scientists learn about the environment and how they can help save it.

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 two-part activity, learners investigate buoyancy, density and surface area as well as biodiversity and the relationship between the structure and function of organisms.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this outdoor activity, learners go "can fishing" and discover the kinds of aquatic organisms that live in and on submerged cans.

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

Learners build a filter from old soda bottles and dirt. They create polluted water, and pour it through their filter to clean it.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.
