Students make predictions and observations about how ice will melt in different conditions then compare their predictions to results as they make connections to melting glaciers.

In this lesson, students build a paper helicopter, then improve the design and compare and measure performance.

Student teams use the engineering design process and everyday materials to design an insulator that will keep a small amount of water from rapidly changing temperature.

Students will learn about the expanding universe and the redshift of lightwaves, then perform their own calculations with a distant supernova.

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.

In this video lesson, students learn to design, build and launch paper rockets, calculate how high they fly and improve their designs.

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

Students create a scale model of the solar system using beads and string.

Students use measurement skills to determine the scale distance to space on a map.
