After a discussion about what a parachute is and how it works, learners create parachutes using different materials that they think will work best.

In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

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

This lesson focuses on molecular motion in gases. Learners compare the mass of a basketball when it is deflated and after it has been inflated.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into Bernoulli’s principle and airplane wings.
