HOT AIR BALLOONS!!
Thanks to a grant from The Manatee Education Foundation I was able to purchase a hot air balloon launcher as well as the materials to create the balloons. Fifth grade students worked in small groups to build model hot air balloons. It was challenging but so much fun when the balloons actually floated to the top of the PE area!!

| Students learned that the hot air in the balloon is less dense than the cooler air outside the balloon causing it to rise! |
