In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

Learners investigate how temperature affects the rate of chemical reactions by observing how steel wool reacts with various types of Kool-Aid solutions at different temperatures.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to invent a water filter that cleans dirty water.

In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

In this activity, challenge learners to design a roller coaster ride for a marble using cardboard and other simple materials.

In this activity, learners construct a playable kazoo from inexpensive materials. They will experience how vibration creates sound waves and music.

In this activity, challenge learners to keep an ice cube from completely melting in 30 minutes. Learners engineer a box or wrap to prevent an ice cube from melting.

In this hands-on activity, learners build their own kaleidoscopes and explore how light can reflect of off surfaces such as mirrors, to produce beautiful patterns.

In this activity, learners will experiment with the physics of flight by making a gliding contraption with strange looking wings. The activity explores flight with connections to the natural world.

In this dynamic activity, learners build a catapult that launches projectiles, such as marshmallows.
