In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

The goal of this activity is to build a miniature bobsled that is either the fastest or the slowest. Learners use recycled materials to design, build, and test their bobsled on a bobsled track.

In this fun and, at times, hilarious force and motion activity, learners will use household objects to build a crazy contraption and see how far they can get a tennis ball to move.

In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.
