Build Models of Molecules—
Mousetrap Cars—Super Value
Measurement Challenge—
A Density Super Value Guided-Inquiry Kit
A hands-on, prelab activity allows students to begin with length and area before
they progress to volume and density—a sequence in which students advance from one-dimensional measurements to two- and three-dimensional calculations. Complete for 30 students working individually, and all materials are reusable.
Guided-Inquiry Kit
Guided-Inquiry Kit
In this introductory guided-inquiry activity, students use reasoning skills to build mole- cules from the ground up using models. Students then determine and draw the structural formula for each molecule. The activity is divided into five parts, starting with a teacher demonstration.
AP7289 I $64.90
Students become real-world engineers
as they investigate the various parts of a mousetrap car to determine each part’s effect on the car’s performance, testing variables like wheel diameter, hub diameter and length of the lever arm. This highly motivating activity truly integrates content and reasoning while engaging students
in science and engineering practices. Complete for six student groups.

Guided-Inquiry Kit
As students build their own working models of a hovercraft, they learn the basic concepts of how a vessel is able to “ride on air.” Students test their models, make observations, then propose test- able questions. A great STEM activity
to include when covering the concepts of force, motion, energy or air pressure.

Balloon Cars Challenge—Guided-Inquiry Kit
Your students will be thinking like champions with Flinn’s Balloon Cars Challenge! Each group constructs and tests an easy-to-assemble balloon-powered car prototype. Next, students use their knowledge of forces and Newton’s laws to identify variables that may affect the car’s performance. Modifications are then made to the basic design in order to investigate one or more variables. Finally, the redesigned cars are put to the test—who will win the challenge? A fun and memorable activity to engage students in science and engineering practices!
