Learners explore physics by participating in a science activity in class. In this flight properties lesson, students identify Bernoulli's principle of flight and his theory of statics and motion. Learners conduct a demonstration by...

Learners study how forces are applied in the creation of art. They design mobiles and pop-up books while identifying which forces of nature act upon them. They look at air currents, gravity, and hand movement.

Learners investigate ways to enhance an object's flying ability.  In this model construction lesson, students construct two paper airplanes, one of which is twice as big as the first.  Learners compare and contrast the two...

Young scholars are introduced to the physics of flight through video and PowerPoint presentations. They construct and fly model gliders and compete for height, distance, time, etc.

Students use, with increasing confidence, problem-solving approaches to investigate and explain mathematical content. They make and test conjectures. They use tables and graphs as tools to interpret expressions, equations, and inequalities.

Students launch a rocket.  For this laws of motion lesson, students discuss the forces of flight, how a plane flies and how a rocket gets off the ground.  Students watch a video about rocket launches, discuss Newton's Third Law...

Students design and make a flying device. They work in small groups to brainstorm ideas for the design of their device. They choose an idea or combination of ideas to use for their design and create a sketch of their design. The students...

Students fly their own paper airplanes. In this flight instructional activity, students create paper airplanes and see whose plane will fly the farthest. They discuss what factors affect the flight and attempt to create a plane that will...

In this four forces of flight instructional activity, students read a 1 page article on flights, answer 5 questions with multiple choice answers, draw a line to connect the four forces to their definitions and answer 1 short answer...

Students build a model rocket. In this model rocket lesson, students explore a rocket launch cycle. Students investigate the laws of physics for each part of the launch. Students build model rockets and launch at school.

An ELD definitions list, this resource covers travel-related vocabulary in English. However, it does not offer any opportunities for practice. Based on British English.

Pupils decide on an activity like running, swimming or skating for a performance analysis. They have friends or family members videotape them as they exercise, then review the video to see how they can improve their performance.

Learners apply the knowledge of Bernoulli's Principle and construct simple aerodynamic designs. In this flight physics instructional activity, students explore the history of man's interest in flying and the forces influencing an object...

For this ESL spelling and editing worksheet, students will focus on error correction and editing. Students will read a short passage correcting any spelling mistakes or omissions from the article.

In this language skills worksheet, students read an article regarding Aviation Day. Students respond to 6 matching questions, 29 fill in the blank questions, 30 multiple choice questions, 12 word scramble ...

Fifth graders explain why we fly. For this space science lesson, 5th graders discuss Bernoulli's prinicple and its relation to flight.

In this reading comprehension worksheet, students read the passage titled Bees. They then answer the 10 questions pertaining to the passage.

In this analogy worksheet, students answer seven questions using their problem solving skills and vocabulary skills to discover how words are related to each other. Students are encouraged to use dictionaries.

In this online interactive Wright brothers worksheet, students respond to 8 fill in the blank and multiple choice questions regarding the information included in the provided paragraphs.

Students use the FoilSim educational software program to complete an activity regarding lift. They solve a multivariable equation for each of the variables and apply the results to various problems in different situations.

Students use FoilSim (downloadable) to determine how lift is affected by varying parameters on the Airfoil simulation.

Young scholars use 3-D modeling techniques to observe the characteristic signature of the stall condition apparent on an airfoil at high angles of attack. They use FoilSim to compare the above with ideal airflow.

Students investigate how efficient different substances are at melting snow. Students collect and analysis data.

Learners apply the concepts of air pressure, the Bernoulli Effect, and angle of attack to build their own model planes out of paper, plastic, wooden rods, and drinking straws.
