In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

In this online Flash game, learners will captain a sailing challenge, adjusting boat direction and sails, seeking the way to take greatest advantage of varying wind speeds and directions to catch the

In this engineering/design activity, learners make a kite, fly it, and then work to improve the design. Learners explore how their kite design variations affect flight.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

In this activity, learners explore moving air and the physics of lift and drag by constructing homemade wind tunnels.

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

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

In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites), learners will witness firsthand the effects of Bernoulli’s Principle by capturing a ping pong ball in the stream of air created b
