In this activity, learners use ABS pipe and an air leaf blower to make a strong shooting machine.

In this activity, learners build handheld rockets and launchers out of PVC pipes and plastic bottles. Use this activity to demonstrate acceleration, air pressure, and Newton's Laws of Motion.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this physics activity, learners recreate Galileo's famous experiment, in which he dropped a heavy weight and a light weight from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa to show that both weights fall

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites) is a full inquiry investigation into how a kite’s shape affects its performance.

Agriculturalists have long considered mushroom growing a challenge, largely because you need a piece of benchtop equipment known as a laminar flow hood.

In this two-part activity, learners work in pairs to examine the four basic stages of a turbine engine.

In this activity, learners use household materials to investigate and explore their ability to smell an odor.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Hovercraft) is a full inquiry investigation into hovercraft engineering and design optimization.

In this activity, learners build a miniature wind tunnel to measure force. Learners construct the model out of Lexan plastic, a fan, and a precise digital scale.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.
