Learn about the human circulatory system and make your own scab!

Students design a water filter to separate a mixture.

Students are introduced to form and function of structures and then build a bridge given certain limitations.

Students build a beaver dam and lodge to understand what stable structures are and then they test their structure by placing a load on it - something heavy like a brick - and see if the force will make the structure collapse.

Test different structures to see how strong they are!
