This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Hovercraft) is a full inquiry investigation into hovercraft engineering and design optimization.

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.

This is an activity about motion, power, air and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In this two-part activity, learners work in pairs to examine the four basic stages of a turbine engine.

Scientists use enormous wind tunnels to test the design of planes, helicopters, even the Space Shuttle.

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this activity, learners build a miniature wind tunnel to measure force. Learners construct the model out of Lexan plastic, a fan, and a precise digital scale.
