In this activity, learners use cheap, thin plastic garbage bags to quickly build a solar hot air balloon. In doing so, learners will explore why hot air rises.

In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners build rockets and shoot them into the air by stomping on the plastic bottle launchers.

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.

Explore the effects of gravity on a slowly falling object: a parachute you make out of plastic bags, string and stones.

In this physics activity, learners conduct two experiments to explore free-falling.
