In this activity, learners discover how NASA engineers develop experimental aircraft.

In this activity, learners build a nanorover model using styrofoam meat trays and a balloon.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

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

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

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF SciGirls Activity: Milk Carton Boat) is a full inquiry investigation into boat hull design.

In this experiment, learners discover how an airfoil creates lift. Learners use simple materials to build an airfoil and test it at different angles to investigate Bernoulli's principle.

In this experiment, learners investigate how the size of a wing affects lift. Learners count the number of pennies an egg crate plane wing can hold until the plane will no longer fly.
