In this activity, learners explore how parachutes are used to slow down moving objects. Learners work in teams of "engineers" to design and build their own parachutes out of everyday items.

After a discussion about what a parachute is and how it works, learners create parachutes using different materials that they think will work best.

In this activity, learners design and build their own parachute using household materials with the goal of landing their passenger safely on a target.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.
