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

In this activity, students will use sea-level rise data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends. They will then determine whether sea-level rise is occurring based on the data.

Students use tangrams to create rockets while practicing shape recognition.

In this standards-aligned unit, students learn about Mars, design a mission to explore the planet, build and test model spacecraft and components, and engage in scientific exploration.

Students use global temperature data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends.

Students learn how scientists assess wildfires using remote sensing and solve related math problems, appropriate for various grade levels.

Students construct CD hovercraft as a lesson in Newton's laws of motion and friction -- plus an astronaut tie-in.

In this simple engineering design lesson, students turn a piece of paper into an aircraft wing and then try to improve upon their design.

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