In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.

In this design and physics challenge, learners construct a cylindrical wing, fly it, make modifications, and determine how the changes affect flight patterns.

In this activity related to Newton's Laws of Motion, learners build a boat powered by a propeller in the air.

In this activity, learners explore force and motion by constructing cardboard cars that are propelled by balloons.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Roller Coaster Design Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into g-force and acceleration.

In this activity related to flight, learners build a tiny stream channel to investigate how fluids (air and water) change speed as they flow between and around objects.

In this playful physics activity (page eight of the pdf), learners use toy cars to explore how speed and weight affect the results of collision.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

Build a car that runs on air. Using household materials, experiment with the power of air to create thrust powerful enough to move a homemade car.

In this activity, learners build styrofoam boats powered by twisted rubber bands.

This is an online game about stopping distance. Learners choose one of three vehicles and one of three speeds.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a race-car out of a coffee can and rubber band. Demonstrate motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy and friction.
