In this activity, learners work with an adult to build a rocket and launcher out of a plastic 2-liter bottle, flexible plastic hose, plastic tubing, toilet paper tube, and duct tape.

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 activity, learners build rockets and shoot them into the air by stomping on the plastic bottle launchers.

In this physics activity, learners will build their own parachutes out of tissue paper. They will explore the effects of weight, height, and design on the parachutes' speed and stability.

Learners conduct four simple experiments to demonstrate the effects of air pressure.

Experiment with force and pressure by building a balloon rocket. When launched, the balloon will run a track wherever you place the string.
