Learners set up books with rubber bands stretched between the books. When two identical books are stretched apart and released, they move back toward each other an equal distance.

In this demonstration/activity, water streaming through holes in the bottom of a suspended soda pop can causes the can to rotate.

To learn how friction affects motion, learners build a measurement tool from a rubber band and other simple materials.

Learners build a simple hovercraft using air from a balloon to levitate a craft made from a compact disc (CD).

Learners test their "light-smarts" by playing a game called "Light Quest!" The game board represents an atom and each player represents an electron that has been bumped into the atom's outer unstable

Learners construct a rocket from a balloon propelled along a guide string.

This is an activity about Newton's First Law of Motion - a body in motion tends to stay in motion, or a body at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.

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 use a pencil, magnets, and mat board to illustrate Newton's Second Law.
