In this activity, learners build mini-basketball courts and explore the laws of physics. Learners discover that everything you throw or shoot on earth travels in a parabola.

In this activity, learners build handheld rockets and launchers out of PVC pipes and plastic bottles. Use this activity to demonstrate acceleration, air pressure, and Newton's Laws of Motion.

In this activity, learners design and build their own parachute using household materials with the goal of landing their passenger safely on a target.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.
