Coins are everyday objects which tell a lot about the people who use them.

A design challenge that takes paper airplanes into an entirely different direction: a magnus glider uses cups and and rubber bands to create a glider that uses the same forces that a curveball (from b

In this activity, learners will make and launch feather rockets. Lerners will use science process skils such as making predictions and measuring while launching the rockets.

In this activity, learners will explore density and it's relationship with mass.

In this activity, learners will explore how and why weight distribution works.

Cool off in the heat with this project! Learners use simple materials to build a fan that runs on a motor.

In this activity, learners explore the parts of a circuit by modeling, as a group, a “human” circuit.

Learners will collect pennies to donate and will combine charitable giving with estimating and calculating with money. To start choose a charity or something to save up for together.

In this activity, young learners explore the basic shapes of constellations by making their own scope out of a cardboard tube and paper with pinpricks.

In this activity, learners use pattern blocks and mirrors to explore symmetry. Learners work in pairs and build mirror images of each other's designs.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to build their own compass.

In this activity, learners explore the principles of magnetism by observing how various materials interact with magnets and superconductors.

Learners draw comic-style pictures to show the water cycle. From a starting picture, one learner draws what happens to the water in the next panel, then passes the comic strip to another learner.

In this online game, learners run an outer space drink stand and thirsty alien customers are on the way.

In this activity, learners work in teams to simulate the process used by Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to determine the location of a fallen meteorite in Antarctica.

Learners model the Sun-Earth-Moon system to show what causes the Moon's appearance to change when viewed from the Earth.

In this activity learners will explore how water moves on waxed paper. Learners will use science process skills such as using tools and making observations as they explore surface tension.

This is a great activity for investigating the basics of lift and drag as they pertain to flight. Learners will discover how to avoid "taking a nosedive" by building their own paper airplane.

In this activity, learners investigate soil erosion. Learners set up a simulation to observe how water can change the land and move nutrients from one place to another.

This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.
