Students learn about cloud types to be able to predict inclement weather. They will then identify areas in the school affected by severe weather and develop a solution to ease the impacts of rain, wind, heat or sun.

Whip up a moon-like crater with baking ingredients as a demonstration for students.

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

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 build a rubber-band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

Students learn about surface features on Mars, then use a visual programming language to create a Mars exploration game.

Students design and build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two "astronauts" when they land.

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

Students build a spectrometer using basic materials as a model for how NASA uses spectroscopy to determine the nature of elements found on Earth and other planets.
