Air Pressure Experiment

Grade 6's have been investigating flight and properties of air. This week we discovered that air, which is a fluid, can exert pressure on objects. To investigate this concept a little further at home, follow the link below for an easy experiment that you can do with a friend or family member.

Air Pressure All Around

Note to Parents: This experiment is directly related to the Ontario Curriculum expectations for Science. The specific expectation is that by the end of Grade 6, students will identify the properties of air that make flight possible.
