In this small-group activity, learners assume the roles of pilots, air traffic controllers, and NASA scientists to solve five Air Traffic Control (ATC) problems.

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

In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

This is an activity about motion, power, air and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

In this activity, learners make water rockets to explore Newton's Third Law of Motion. Learners make the rockets out of plastic bottles and use a bicycle pump to pump them with air.

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 explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.
