Learners construct and launch paper helicopters.

In this activity, learners construct a paper glider to experiment with aerodynamic forces.

In this inquiry-based activity, learners investigate the basic forces of flight as they construct their own paper glider that represents a rainforest creature from Borneo (large, tropical island in So

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.

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

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.
