Learners develop awareness and understanding of the daily air quality using the Air Quality Index (AQI) listed in the newspaper or online.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.

Learners build particulate matter collectors--devices that collect samples of visible particulates present in polluted air.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity), learners will see the effects of convection and understand what makes hot air balloons rise.

In this design challenge activity, learners make a balloon hover at eye level for five seconds, and then make it move by creating air currents.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

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