In this activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting), learners will construct an air cannon by cutting a hole in the bottom of a bucket and stretching a garbage bag over the other end

In this activity, learners make different shapes that hold exactly one mole of gas (air).

Students design and create their own air-powered rockets, in this hands-on activity.

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.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

Hooray! In this design challenge activity, learners invent a device that launches a spoonful of confetti into the air. Learners are encouraged to create the biggest cloud of confetti possible.

In this design challenge activity, learners use a balloon and other simple materials to design an air-powered rocket that can hit a distant target.

Learners explore the Bernoulli effect by building an airfoil (airplane wing) and making it fly.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.
