Balloon Jets
Learners investigate how fuel amount affects the distance traveled by balloons. In this physics lesson plan, students collect data and create a pictograph. They interpret data and formulate a conclusion.
Curated OER
Balloon Fiesta
Pupils participate in a math activity that reinforces basic fact strategies including counting on from a greater number. They interact with pictures of hot-air balloons and discuss word and sentence equations that deal with how many...
Curated OER
Diffusion Through Balloons
Students observe the diffusion of air molecules through a balloon. In this chemistry and molecules lesson plan, students fill balloons with air and a scented substance and observe whether the scented air is able to permeate the balloon.
Curated OER
What A Gas!
Learners study various aspects of air. In this science lesson plan, students discover that air occupies space, understand the visual effects of air, and explain how air exerts force.
Curated OER
Air Pressure
Students investigate the basic principles of air pressure. In this experimental lesson students use materials to create several different experiments that help to explain air pressure and friction.
Curated OER
Flight
Students research flight and to try and put the events of Kitty Hawk into proper perspective. They look at kites, the lateen sail, flight toys (old and new), hot air balloons, propulsion units, hang gliders, and the men who made them.
Curated OER
Weather
Learners read a weather map. Using the local newspaper, Columbus Dispatch, small groups investigate that air has pressure and that temperature and pressure are inversely related in weather. They display their findings on a graph or...
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore solids, liquids, and gasses and categorize and describe the three states of matter. In this chemistry lesson, students categorize items as solid, liquid, or gas based on the definitions given by the teacher. Students...
Curated OER
Gases
Second graders work with gases to determine what the effects of temperature are on volume and air pressure by working with balloons. Also, they experiment with vinegar and baking soda. They predict the outcomes of these experiments, and...
Curated OER
Ice Eggs
Students melt colored ice cubes which are created from a funnel, balloons, water, and food coloring. In this ice lesson plan, students put food coloring into water in a balloon, freeze it, and see how the food coloring ended up making...
Yale University
Airplane Mathematics
The history of aerodynamics is rich with experimentation and international collaboration. Author Joyce Bryant relays this dynamic past and provides math word problems using the formula of lift, the force that makes airplanes fly. She...
Curated OER
What Makes the Wind Blow?
Student study the properties of wind. They make a miniature hot-air balloon and compose diamond-shaped poems about the wind. They explain that as the sun warms air around the earth, the air rises. Colder air then moves in to fill the...
Curated OER
Science: The Changing Life of Air Pressure
Fourth graders observe demonstrations how heated air rises and becomes a low pressure area. After watching several teacher-conducted experiments, 4th graders, in groups, discuss and answer questions in their journals. Finally, they...
Kenan Fellows
Sensors in Chemistry
The Environmental Protection Agency monitors sensors to track air pollution and set clean air standards. Enthusiastic young scientists use similar sensors to gather data in their area and then apply the gas laws and conservation of...
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Air Pressure Phenomena
Students consider the relationship between pressure and temperature. They observe a demonstration and explore the relationship between heat and volume when pressure remains constant. Students discuss relational causality and consider...

Puppy Valentine's Day Coloring Page
In this coloring worksheet, students examine a black line drawing of a puppy in a heart-shaped hot air balloon. Students color the Valentine's Day picture.
Adrian College
The Universe
Young scientists create a simulation of Hubble's law. Introducing the Big Bang Theory using balloons and a simple lab worksheet, scholars complete a data table and perform analysis.
Curated OER
The Pressure's Off
Students investigate air pressure with four hands-on activities. They observe experiments by viewing Take a Look 2 #21.
Curated OER
Convection Activities
Students conduct a series of hands-on activities to demonstrate that heated air expands and that warm air rises because it is less dense.
Curated OER
Pressure and Volume of Gases
Students investigate pressure and volume as they relate to gases. In this pressure and volume lesson plan, students observe multiple demonstrations related to air pressure. The develop an understanding of the relationship between...
Curated OER
Matter and Molecular Motion
Fourth graders define the states of matter and their properties. They demonstrate the air is matter and observe the effect of molecular motion through these activities.
