In this astronomy activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will examine the effects of gravity on a person’s pulse and explore how gravity can differ from planet to planet.

In this activity, learners perform 20 arm curls with cans that simulate the weight of beans on Earth versus the weights of the same number of beans on the Moon and in space.

In this engineering/design activity, learners make a kite, fly it, and then work to improve the design. Learners explore how their kite design variations affect flight.

In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

This is a great activity for investigating the basics of lift and drag as they pertain to flight. Learners will discover how to avoid "taking a nosedive" by building their own paper airplane.

In this challenge, learners make a helium balloon hover in one spot and then move it through an obstacle course using air currents.

During this activity, learners take part in a variety of tasks which involve moving and balancing different body parts.
