In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

On an airplane trip, learners have an opportunity to investigate the properties of air pressure at different altitudes.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Luge Activity), learners will construct a model hovercraft out of an empty spool and a piece of cardboard.

In this activity, learners create a model of a hot air balloon using tissue paper and a hairdryer. Educators can use this activity to introduce learners to density and its role in why things float.

This lesson guide includes six simple and quick activities to help learners better understand Bernoulli's Principle.

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

Learners assemble a hot-air balloon from tissue paper. The heated air (from a heat gun) inside the balloon is less dense than the surrounding air and causes the balloon to float.
