__**Engineering Activities**__

__Pendulum Activity__ - SW design and create a pendulum. SW take into account the weight, length of string, angle and height of release.
 * Math integration - measurement (length, weight, and time of pendulum travel)

__Rollercoaster Design__ - SW design a working roller coaster online at []

__Zipline__ - TW mount a zip line in the classroom. SW take into account the potential energy of zip line and modify a paper cup so it will zip down the line in a certain amount of time.
 * Math integration - measurement (weight and time of travel), graphing of results.

__Car Races__ - SW use hot wheels cars and add items from bag of pre-determined materials to car. TW give students items to create an inclined plane. SW then attempt to make their car travel the farthest.
