This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

In this activity (15th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners use glue and cardboard to construct a maze they use with their eyes closed.

In this activity, learners design miniature cars. Learners can create a telephone car, soccer car, merry-go-round car, or any other theme car they can imagine.

In this activity, learners create night lights using a plastic cup, programmable PICO Cricket, tri-color LED, and sensor.

In this math activity, learners use cubes to calculate how many blocks it would take to build stairways with different heights.

In this activity, learners create painting machines that can paint moving forwards and backwards.

In this activity about molecular diffusion (located on page 2 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity), learners will make predictions and move molecules of iodine through a seemingly solid plastic sandw

In this activity, learners create a model of a hot air balloon using tissue paper and a hairdryer. Educators can use this activity to introduce learners to density and its role in why things float.

In this math activity, learners make a set of fraction cards to play a game that will help relieve their fraction frustrations.

In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to construct a paper bridge that can support 100 pennies.

Learners build a wind turbine and test it to see how much energy is created.

See what force a magnet has on a wire that has current running through it: will it push it, pull it, or will nothing happen? This is the foundation of a simple electric motor.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a pinball-like game where a kick stick hits a ping pong ball into a target that buzzes.

In this design challenge activity, learners modify a cup so it can carry a marble down a zip line and also drop it onto a target.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this activity, learners take a turn contributing a closed figure made of six squares to a large grid; each must be different from all the others on the grid so far.

Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

In this data analysis activity, learners use data collected by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to study Chilean sea bass populations.
