• assorted tools and adhesives, such as rulers, scissors, tape, white glue, hot glue
• wooden board for a ramp, 10 inches wide x 3 to 5 feet long, to run all model cars down for crash testing; alternatively, use sturdy cardboard
• plastic sheeting, to tape against the wall and floor for mess protection during testing
• washers and duct tape, to add equal weight to all cars, to improve the crash dynamics
• smartphone or tablet, to video record the model cars in slow motion
• stopwatches, for timing crash tests
• (optional) Internet access for researching current car safety features
• Creative Crash Testing Worksheet
