Learners construct and launch paper helicopters.

In this inquiry-based activity, learners investigate the basic forces of flight as they construct their own paper glider that represents a rainforest creature from Borneo (large, tropical island in So

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.

In this design and physics challenge, learners construct a cylindrical wing, fly it, make modifications, and determine how the changes affect flight patterns.

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

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.
