In this balloon rocket worksheet, students experiment with a balloon, clothespin, straw, string and tape to observe Newton's Third Law of Motion in action. Students explain the action force and reaction force acting in the investigation.

Students color the balloon by following the directions in each balloon. In this coloring/color worksheet, students are to color the balloon with the color name inside the balloon. 

Students, after reviewing and analyzing Newton's third law of motion, make balloon rockets and experiment with a variety of models. After the experiment, they chart the results and form conclusions. In addition, they compare/contrast...

Students investigate energy conversions. In this physical science lesson plan, students make balloon balls to better understand rebound and the law of conservation of energy. The students will use there balloon balls in a series of tests...

High schoolers listen to the teacher introduce VSEPR theory and explain molecular geometry. They use balloons to visualize the shape of orbitals. Students create visuals of molecular orbitals with strings and balloons.

Take your class up, up, and away with an engaging weather balloon simulation! Individuals get hands-on experience in creating and launching their own airborne labs to study how temperature and pressure affect substances at 100,000...

Fifth graders design their own hot air balloon. In this science lesson, 5th graders investigate how factors like weight and sizes affect a balloon's lifting power. They also write math problems based on facts written in the...

Students encounter basic facts about helium and hot air. They compare the weight and size of different materials. Students work collaboratively in teams. They create their own model balloon.

Students construct hot air balloons. In this science lesson, students assemble their own balloon using tissue paper and glue. They time the duration of the flight, record data and calculate team averages.

Students put a few pennies into a balloon and blow it up. Students attach the balloons to a clothes line. Students draw targets on the balloons and use water guns to hit the target.

Eighth graders use the scientific method to discover why a balloon is not inflated.

How does a hot air balloon fly? An experimental lesson has scholars build a balloon from a garbage bag and monitor the movement of air. As the temperature of the air in the balloon increases, gravity moves the denser cool air down,...

Students conduct an experiment to discover what happens to air when it is heated or cooled, discover that wind moves from a high-pressure area (an area of sinking air) to a low pressure area (an area of rising air).

Capture your unique print. Individuals ink a finger and create a print on a deflated balloon. By blowing up the balloon, pupils get a magnified view of their unique print. They see if they can identify any loops, whorls, and arches in...

Accept NASA's challenge to design heavy lifting vehicles. Groups of three design balloon-powered rockets to carry as much payload to the ceiling as possible. The teams are encouraged to launch several times while making...

Cling to a lesson on static electricity. Pupils take part in experiments where they see how paper from hole punchers, packing peanuts, puffed rice cereal, and other items react when placed near a rubbed balloon. They learn how electrons...

Fill your classroom with balloons for this fun mini-lesson! Beginning readers create this tiny booklet about balloons, illustrating each simple sentence provided. When they're finished, consider playing a game! Break your kindergarteners...

In this coloring learning exercise, students count the three balloons and then color each balloon. The objective is to enhance students' motor and math skills.

Students research how hot-air balloons rise and descend, and find out how their operation is affected by weather. They identify conditions in which it is safe to fly hot-air balloons, and equipment necessary for crew and passenger...

Balloons bring great fun to the classroom, until they break. What's a teacher to do then? Break out the balloon of the computer age with a fun interactive! Science scholars add and remove atoms from their virtual balloons and observe...

Working with static electricity is sure to give the class a charge! Budding scientists experiment with balloons and different materials to discover how to create static electricity. They learn about the transfer of electrons and the...

Light, distance, and mathematics come together to help scientists plan for space missions. Groups examine the relationship between distance from the sun and light availability in a hands-on exploration activity. They model the inverse...

An exercise offers young scholars a coping skill to manage stress or other strong emotions. Learners identify the emotion, focus on how their body feels physically, then pretend they are holding a balloon over their heads, blow their...

In this swim bladders worksheet, students use a bowl, water, and balloons to make swim bladders, and answer short answer questions about them. Students answer 7 questions and interview someone who has been scuba diving.
