In this activity, students participate in a community of inquiry to unpack the significant elements of flight.
Push, pull, lift and tilt! Build a simple air-powered machine that can perform a task. What will you make the machine do? Use pressurised air and pneumatics to make your machine move.
In this design challenge, students are tasked with designing and building a stomp rocket that can travel to a chosen planet.
