Teach Engineering: Fun With Bernoulli

For Teachers 5th - 7th
While we know there is air around us all the time, we normally do not notice the air pressure. The purpose of this is activity is to use Bernoulli's Principle to manipulate air pressure so we can see its influence on the objects around us.
