Learners construct a rocket from a balloon propelled along a guide string.

Learners make a skydiver and parachute contraption and launch it. They see that the drag created by air resistance slows the descent of skydivers as they travel back to Earth.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a rubber band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

In this activity, learners use a pencil, magnets, and mat board to illustrate Newton's Second Law.

With little more than a plastic bottle, some vinyl tubing, and a length of PVC pipe, make a rocket and a rocket launcher and investigate how rockets fly.
