Gravity
Standing on tables dropping various things, discuss weight plays a role on how fast things fall, but ultimately everything falls.
How does gravity affect our daily life. How have we designed the world to help us navigate gravity?
How can we slow things down from falling? How have humans designed things to help us beat gravity whether for fun or for safety? Talk about things that don’t fall out of control …gliders, hot air balloons, stairs, escalators, elevators etc.. all the things that help us go up and down at our own pace.
Making parachutes. Talk about materials needed watch some videos. Create our designs. Have a ‘we (kinda) beat gravity day!!!’ dropping various things and enjoying science.
