Explore the effects of gravity on a slowly falling object: a parachute you make out of plastic bags, string and stones.

In this activity, learners build a simple tabletop seesaw to test how different variables (the position of the fulcrum, distance, weight) affect its balance under increasing weight loads.

In this activity, learners explore moving air and the physics of lift and drag by constructing homemade wind tunnels.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

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

In this math lesson, learners practice estimation and measurement skills as they move from station to station calculating length, volume, weight, and area.

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 activity, learners predict whether a ball on Earth or a ball on the Moon bounces higher when dropped and why.
