In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

Using paper, paper clips, an index card, and tape, teams of learners design flying devices to (1) stay in the air as long as possible and (2) land as close as possible to a given target.

In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

Learners follow the template to build and fly a paper helicopter.

In this three-part activity, learners use paper to explore Bernoulli's Principle — fast-moving air has lower pressure than non-moving air.

In this activity, learners explore the properties of paper by constructing and modifying paper airplanes.

In this activity, learners construct paper airplanes that twist and turn.

In this design and physics challenge, learners construct a cylindrical wing, fly it, make modifications, and determine how the changes affect flight patterns.

In this activity related to flight, learners conduct two simple tests to explore how lift works.

In this activity about flight, learners explore how high they can jump. Learners dip their finger in ink or dirt, then jump as high as they can and mark paper attached to the wall.

In this activity related to flight, learners build a tiny stream channel to investigate how fluids (air and water) change speed as they flow between and around objects.
