This resource includes a hands-on earthquake engineering lab that helps students explore how building design affects stability during shaking. Students build and test square and triangle towers using simple materials, then observe which structure stands up better during a model earthquake. Through this investigation, students learn an important engineering concept: the shape of a structure affects its strength and stability. Comparing squares and triangles helps students see why triangular su

Make teaching electricity and magnetism simple and engaging with this hands-on resource! Perfect for Grades 4–6, this package introduces students to electricity, simple circuits, conductors and insulators, series vs. parallel circuits, and electromagnets in a clear and accessible way. To run the experiments, students will need: a battery, wires with clips, small light bulbs, a switch (optional), various test materials (metal/plastic/wood), an iron nail, and copper wire. Students build real circu
