In this activity, learners explore sports engineering and advanced materials development.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how engineering solved the problem of human/computer interface.

In this activity, learners play a series of simple games to investigate navigation without visual and sound cues.

In this activity, learners explore how voting systems have changed with engineering advances over time. Learners work in teams to design their own voting system using easy to find materials.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how engineering has made possible the development of--and ongoing improvements to--adaptive devices that serve to help individuals with a wide range o

In this two part activity, learners work in pairs or individually to discover how vectoring the thrust from a jet engine affects movement of an airplane.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers develop pipeline systems to transport oil, water, gas, and other materials over very long distances.

In this activity, learners explore the design of rubber band powered cars. Learners work in teams of "engineers" to design and build their own rubber band cars out of everyday items.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

Learners make a counting/estimating jar to exchange with friends or bring home.

This is an online game about the complexities of farming. Learners will "draw" cards and make decisions about how to take care of their farm.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

Learners follow the template to build and fly a paper helicopter.

In this design challenge activity, learners use two helium-filled balloons to build a blimp that can travel in a straight path across the room.

In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.

This activity (page 2) draws upon a familiar, computer-based concept related to visual resolution: pixilation.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Music and Sound) is a full inquiry investigation into sound frequency.

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.
