Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Luge Activity), learners will construct a model hovercraft out of an empty spool and a piece of cardboard.
PVC Water Squirter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a water squirter using a PVC pipe, dowel, and foam. This activity is great for the summer time and introduces learners to forces and water pressure.
Airplane Wing Investigation
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into Bernoulli’s principle and airplane wings.
3...2...1 Puff!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.
Cylindrical Wing
Source Institutions
In this design and physics challenge, learners construct a cylindrical wing, fly it, make modifications, and determine how the changes affect flight patterns.
Bernoulli's Blowout
Source Institutions
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
