In this activity, learners explore the structural strength of triangles by creating their own free-standing geodesic dome out of plastic straws.

This magic trick is based on how computers detect and correct data errors.

This game uses a modified Uno deck to review concepts related to stem cell research and diabetes.

In this activity, learners explore how the shapes, sizes, and distances of land masses appear differently on two different models of Earth: an icosahedron and a flat map.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this activity, learners are challenged to create a parachute using easily sourced materials in order to transport a LEGO figure safely to the ground.

In this activity, learners make a Benham Top to explore visual illusions and optics.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

In this activity and/or field trip, learners investigate the water currents that aquatic animals create when they breathe, feed, and propel themselves through water.

Exponga estos pósteres en el salón o déjelos donde los chicos los puedan explorar. Los chicos buscan las respuestas en libros de consulta, explorando el salón, y usando su creatividad.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a wind-powered car using only a handful of household materials.

In this activity, learners transform everyday milk into small plastic figurines and jewelry. Use this activity to introduce learners to monomers and polymers.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.

In this activity, learners will observe birds in their backyard or local park. They will attempt to find common Ohio birds and will look for bird behaviors just like an ornithologist.

In this activity, learners construct hail-proof houses using recycled materials to discuss storm readiness and safety.

Design a vessel that tests the limits of wind power given a set of off the shelf and recycled materials.

In this activity, learners will use a compact disc to build an air puck that can glide across a smooth tabletop. The puck glides with almost no friction on a cushion of air escaping from a balloon.

Based of the The Tech Challenge 2015, learners will engage in two mini-design challenges related to seismic engineering.

This activity helps students learn how computers "compress" text by identifying repeating patterns of letters, words, and phrases.
