Explore space and science activities that students can do with NASA at Home, including video tutorials for making rockets, Mars rovers, Moon landers, and more.

Students study rocket stability as they design, construct and launch paper rockets using soda straws.

Students use tangrams to create rockets while practicing shape recognition.

Students design, build and program a robotic “super crawler” to transport a payload from a starting position to a target launch pad, deliver the payload in an upright position and return the robot to the starting point.

Students build rubber-band-powered rockets and launch them at various angles to learn about rocket stability and trajectory.

Students gather data on a balloon rocket launch, then create a simple graph to show the results of the tests.

Students perform a simple science experiment to learn how a rocket works and demonstrate Newton’s third law of motion.

Students use rocket manipulatives to help them develop number sense, counting, addition and subtraction skills.

Students cut out, color and sequence paper rockets in a simple mathematics lesson on measurement.
