In this demonstration/activity, water streaming through holes in the bottom of a suspended soda pop can causes the can to rotate.

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

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make and race a balloon-powered car. Learners construct the body out of a paper cup, wheels out of wooden spools. and fuel tank out of a balloon.

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 explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

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

In this activity, learners construct and launch rockets using simple materials and their understanding of chemical reactions.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

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

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

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.

Experiment with force and pressure by building a balloon rocket. When launched, the balloon will run a track wherever you place the string.
