In this activity, learners explore Boyle's Law and discover that water will boil at room temperature if its pressure is lowered.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

Learners measure a bottle full of air, and then use a vacuum pump to remove the air. When they re-weigh the bottle, learners find the mass is about 0.8g less.

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.

In this activity, learners construct a small "air cannon," and use its airflow to put out a candle (lit with the help of an adult).

Learners color and cut out a spiral-shaped snake. When they hang their snake over a radiator, the snake spins.
