Create a Mobile—Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Add art to science and engineering concepts with this creative activity. In the introductory activity, students discover the law of levers by balancing different numbers of washers on either end of a ruler. The results guide students to design a three-tiered mobile. Once the theme of their mobile is chosen and the objects to be balanced are constructed, students weigh each object and predict the location of the center of gravity for each level. A sketch of their design is drawn and then the construction begins! Students consider sources of error and make necessary adjustments.

Roller Coasters—Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Roller coasters are a classic amusement park ride. They also provide the opportunity to learn about conservation of energy, acceleration, friction, and engineering design in a fun and exciting way! In the introductory activity, students determine how changing the release height and mass of a ball affects the distance the ball will travel on a straight track with a single rise. Students apply their findings and knowledge of conservation of energy to design a roller coaster with specific criteria and constraints, using only the materials provided, to create a thrilling yet safe ride!
