What is hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)?
A flat board that is sitting at an angle and can be used to push something up to a higher level or let something roll down to a lower level.
What are three and two?
The two colors of filament we had available.
What are black and gold?
When we work together to complete tasks, we end up with better results.
What is teamwork?
Pennies are made of these two elements.
What are copper and zinc?

These three types of animal have these types of teeth (list them in the correct order): 1) Pointy 2) Flat 3) Both pointy and flat
What are 1) carnivores, 2) herbivores, and 3) omnivores.
The spool of plastic that is used as the material to 3D print with.
What is filament?
When we are curious and and seek out new knowledge.
What is discovery?
What are bases and acids?
This involves a string or rope on a round object that changes the direction of the force needed to move an object (often makes it easier to lift the object up).
What is a pulley?
A carnivorous dinosaur whose name translates to "Tyrant King".
What is a tyrannosaurus rex (T. Rex)?
The program we used to design 3D objects.
When we take the knowledge we've learned and use it to help others or the world.
The ratio of mass to volume of a substance.
What is density?
A round object that rolls that makes it easier to move objects (hint: there are 4 of them on a car).
What is a wheel (or wheel and axle)?
This dinosaur has pointy plates all along its back side that it can use to protect itself from predators, though it only eats plants itself.
Throw away pieces in a 3D print that are only there to give the plastic that's raised up in the air a place to land so that it can cool in the correct shape.
What are supports?
When we solve problems by trying creative solutions until we get it right.
What is innovation?
A chemical that helps speed up a chemical reaction, like the yeast in the Elephant's Toothpaste experiment.
What is a catalyst?
Something that has an angle to it and can be pushed in between two objects to separate them (or lift one up).
While shown in the movies as approximately lion-sized, clever hunters who hunted in groups, this actually was only about the size of a turkey and hunted alone.
What is a velociraptor?
There are 25.4 of these in 1 inch.
What are millimeters (mm)?
When we enjoy what we do and celebrate each other and our accomplishments.
What is fun?
When a chemical reaction releases energy and it feels warmer.
What is exothermic?
This kind of looks like a curly slide and can be used like an elevator to lift objects up a tube.
What is a screw?
This has a horn on its head and makes a trumpet-like sound (also we know one named "Michael Jackson").
