7. Exploring Space
... surface is curved, so as the spacecraft falls, the planet's surface is always curving away from it. The spacecraft (and everything in it) is always falling towards the Earth—and missing! Since everything ...
8. Introducing Decomposers
... organic matter. Vermicomposting, or composting using worms, produces beautiful black castings—an organic, nitrogen-rich natural fertilizer that is one of the best soil additives on the planet. Worm castings ...
9. Making Paper
... Games | The Fernie Academy Planet Protectors | Recycled Paper Logs and Campfire Pucks  ...
10. Map Your Fruit
... In Canada, very few fruits can be grown year-round, so we buy a lot of fruit from other countries. This fruit may travel thousands of kilometres by boat, train, truck or plane before it ends up in the ...
11. Plane Wing Simulator
... This principle is partially responsible for the ability of an airplane to lift off the ground. When an airplane moves through the air, the wings push against the air, so that the airflow is slower under ...
12. Biological Timescale
... planet's history and the brief period dominated by dinosaurs and then humans. Introduction The Earth has existed for 4.5 billion years. That is an incredible length of time for students and adults ...
13. Animals Extraordinaire
In this demonstration, students explore some of the planet's most impressive and most unique animals! Introduction In this demonstration, students explore some of the planet's most impressive and ...
14. Four Forces of Flight
In this quick activity, students think, pair, and share their thoughts on the forces that affect an airplane. Introduction In this quick activity, students think, pair, and share their thoughts on ...
15. Human Airplanes
In this game, the students are the aircrafts, subject to the four forces of flight. Introduction Airplanes are complex machines. Despite their size and thousands of parts, they only need 4 forces ...
16. Running is a Drag
... air makes it hard for the plane to move quickly. The shape of the object determines the amount of drag produced. Objects that are streamlined produce the least amount of drag. The more surface area you ...
17. Balloon Magnets
... in the wing, called angle of attack. Lift is greater when there is a large wing area and when the plane is traveling fast. Ailerons, or the moving parts of the wings, can move up and down to change the ...
18. Drag Is... Slow
In this activity, students compare the flight of a flat sheet of paper to that of a paper airplane. The streamlined paper airplane slips smoothly through the air since its shape produces little drag. A ...
19. Paper Plane Flying Contest
In this activity, students design and compare different kinds of paper airplanes to determine which results in aerodynamic flight.  Introduction What makes a paper airplane fly? Air. How easily ...
20. Magnificent Flying Machine
... pressure. The relative high pressure below the airfoil pushes up the wing, creating lift. By changing the shape of the airfoil slightly, a pilot can adjust the amount of lift on each wing. On an airplane, ...
