Welcome to Eureka

Thrown together by the happenstance of where they live and go to school, a class of fourth graders has ten episodes to walk the path of invention and emerge - maybe scarred, maybe stronger, but almost certainly better inventors.

This is the world of the reality game show Eureka! Student Inventors - where puppets pull the strings and "making it work" is only the beginning.


Each Episode of Eureka required students to solve a certain problem.  Check out some of the episode challenges below:

Episode Synopsis
Create an invention that the inventors (the host of the show) could use to throw away trash without getting up from their seats and without throwing it.  

Episode Synopsis
Work together to transfer the ping pong ball around the table to each group member, without touching the ball with their hands. Then, finally placing the ball in a cup.

Episode synopsis
Learn how the simple machines work and then make up a dance that represents how the simple machine functions.
