LEGO Land Sailing Car
In this lesson, students will experiment with unseen forces and their effect on motion. Students will build a LEGO land sailing car that will be powered by wind produced from a fan. Students will engage is a land sailing video and discuss what they know about what is causing the car to move. Students will experiment with their car to find the best sail angle and shape for making the land yacht travel the farthest distance. Students will collect data and explain their observations about the forces they noticed. Students will have the opportunity to design a new land sailing car.

This is a four-part lesson that will guide students in groups to create a trackless dark ride. A dark ride is a ride where engineers utilize characters, scenes, and music to tell a story to the rider
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
Students will construct a rocket by exploring the relationship of the mass in the nose cone to the success of a launch. Students will learn about "center of mass' and how to find it, as well as the
