Air Rocket Engineering
In this lesson, students will be introduced to the phenomenon of paper/air pressure rocketry. Students will make a memorable and hands-on connection with the transfer of energy when they create and launch their rockets. Students will also experience the engineering design process while they work to improve their rockets with a specific goal in mind (such as reaching a higher altitude.)

Zippy the Elf's Zipline Zone
In this creative engineering design lesson, students are challenged to use an inclined plane to create a safe and exciting zipline park for Zippy the Elf. This lesson reviews simple machines and has
This lesson was designed because students love to compete, and it primes them to use the Engineering Design process to build a boat and revise their design as needed. Students must use at least one
