In this physics activity, learners conduct two experiments to explore free-falling.

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.

In this demonstration, learners investigate mass, gravity, and acceleration by dropping a wooden bar with a balloon attached to its underside, a mass suspended from it by rubber bands, and a sharp-poi

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