Curated OER
Bubble-ology and Bernoulli
Students explore aerodynamics and Bernoulli's principle by devising ways to keep bubbles aloft.
Curated OER
Understanding Bernoulli's Principle
Fifth graders explain why we fly. For this space science lesson, 5th graders discuss Bernoulli's prinicple and its relation to flight.
Curated OER
Everyone Knows It's Windy
Students create an anemometer, an instrument that measures wind speed.
Curated OER
Wind
Students make a wind vane, anemometer, wind spiral, and wind streamer to calculate wind movement. In this wind lesson plan, students test each of their wind instruments, and graph the results of the wind speed in different locations.
Curated OER
How Do Airplanes Stay off the Ground?
Students use balloons and string to duplicate Bernoulli's Principle of wing shape and its affect on liftoff.
Curated OER
Motion in Fluids
Students explore physical science by participating in a science activity. In this liquids lesson plan, students discuss how fluids can be affected by motion unlike solids. Students define other scientific vocabulary terms and conduct a...
Curated OER
Airplane Wings
Students examine the aerodynamics of a wing and how it generates lift. In this flight activity students complete several experiments including how to build a paper plane and how airfoils affect performance.
Curated OER
Come Fly With Me
Pupils apply the Bernoulli Principle. In this flight instructional activity, students design and test a glider.
