Notes

(Most Expensive) Egg Drop Challenge: Purchase a pack of eggs and various materials like cotton balls, foam, or straws from the dollar store. Challenge classmates to design and build a protective casing for an egg to survive a drop from a height. Present designs and test results.(please do this one next)

Paper Airplane Science: Purchase different types of paper and craft supplies from the dollar store. Experiment with various paper airplane designs, test flight distances, and present findings on aerodynamics and design

Electricity Generation from Fruit Batteries: Build a simple battery using fruits like lemons or potatoes, nails, and copper wires to understand the basics of electricity generation through chemical reactions.

Energy-Efficient Home Design: Create a blueprint or model of an energy-efficient house, showcasing features like proper insulation, orientation for natural lighting, and efficient heating/cooling systems.

Spacecraft Models: Construct models of famous spacecraft, such as the Voyager probes, Hubble Space Telescope, or Mars rovers, using craft materials to highlight their scientific contributions and missions.

(can be made with Oreos) Lunar Phases: Craft a lunar phase display using Oreo cookies or foam spheres to represent the different phases of the Moon. Arrange them in sequence to show the changing appearance of the Moon.

Plant Anatomy: Craft a 3D model of a plant's anatomy, including roots, stems, leaves, and flowers using clay, pipe cleaners, and other art supplies to highlight their structures and functions.

Pollination and Plant Reproduction: Construct a model demonstrating pollination using flowers made from craft materials. Show how pollinators transfer pollen between flowers and explain plant reproduction.

Life Cycle of Butterflies or Frogs: Craft a diorama or series of drawings showing the life cycle stages of butterflies or frogs, using clay, paper, or other materials to depict eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults.

The Water Cycle: Create a diorama or mobile depicting the stages of the water cycle using cotton balls, construction paper, and string to represent evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.

Renewable Energy Sources: Craft models showcasing renewable energy sources like wind turbines, solar panels, or hydroelectric dams using recyclable materials to demonstrate their functions and benefits.
