“It costs a candle nothing to light another candle.”
- Curing Cancer
Students will act as bioengineers and apply the engineering design process to design, build, and test a device to separate cancer cells (lentils) and healthy cells (beans). … - Egg Drop
Students will work in teams to design and create contraptions to protect an egg as it falls. Teams will buy materials using points, and compete to save their egg with the least possible amount of materials…. - Fruit Batteries
Students will investigate the voltage of various fruits, then design and build batteries to light an LED. Teams can combine all of their batteries to make one big class battery!… - Hexbug City
Students will design, build, test, and improve a pizza-box maze for their Hexbug “client,” based on a random city location drawn from a deck. They will work in teams to brainstorm and create a team maze, then connect their boxes together to create a full Hexbug City!… - Leaf Pigments
Students will gather leaves, then predict and record what happens when they are added to a rubbing alcohol mixture. They will use paper chromatography to separate and observe the leaves’ pigments…. - Marshmallow Toothpick Bridges
Students will design and build bridges for the people of New Marshmallowland, then test and rebuild them based on their observations….
