Pbs Kids: Science Rocks: Air Lift

Build an air lift siphon using your mad physics skills! Learners first investigate the importance of circulating water in aquaponics systems. They then use density to their advantage as they engineer an air lift siphon

Every kid has a rock collection! That's because rocks are unique and different. Learners discover how igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks form in an informational and visually engaging video.

Up, up, and away! Young scholars learn how to apply physics to a successful ski jump. An interesting video lesson compares and contrasts drag and lift in the context of a ski jump.

Hands-on challenge "to make a helium balloon hover in one spot, then move it through an obstacle course using air currents". Provides full list of materials with ideas on how to design, build, and test the balloon's movement. Activity...

Welcome to Martha's STEM Stories! STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. You may already know that doing STEM means testing ideas, collecting data, making calculations, and drawing graphs and charts-but you...

Rock out with a song, video, and quiz about the rock cycle. Learn how it is similar to recycling, the different kinds of rocks, and how they form. There is a karaoke feature that allows learners to sing along, helping to cement the...

PBS site sets up an investigation that you can do at home to see the effects of invisible air.

PBS site allows you to discover how air pressure works as you learn how to build your own hovercraft.

This PBS site shows users how they can make their own cartesian divers, discover how it works, and have some fun at the same time.

Metamorphic rocks take center stage in this earth science video. Metamorphic rocks are unique from the other two types of rocks in that their mineralogical properties have been changed due to changes in temperature, pressure, or...
