6. Biodegradable Seedling Pots
Students build a biodegradable pot and plant a seed inside. Introduction By making a seedling pot out of newspaper, you can reuse newspaper and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with ...
7. Fruits From Afar Relay
... away to our grocery stores. The fruits that are grown close to home don’t need as much energy to get into our shopping bags. To conserve energy (oil, gas, electricity, etc.) and reduce our carbon dioxide ...
8. Balloon and Cup Attraction
... cup. As the balloon inflates, less of the balloon is in the cup, increasing the volume available to the air molecules trapped inside the cup. This reduces the air pressure inside the cup since the air ...
9. Kids Under Pressure
... happens when the air cools (temperature decreases). As the temperature drops, particles move more slowly, taking up less room. The amount of space the air takes up shrinks, and reduces the air pressure. ...
10. Human Lung Simulator
... chest cavity is increased. Since there is more space available, the air pressure in the chest cavity and lungs is reduced, creating a low-pressure system in your body. The air outside your body immediately ...
11. Build a Barometer
