The Vacuum Packed Teacher

We are learning about air pressure and I thought a good idea would be to have the students experience what the pressure feels like. The students enjoy going in the “great garbage bag vacuum model of science” Here I am in the bag. Use a very large construction bag and insert a vacuum. The air will be sucked out and you will feel the pressure. Give it a try whent studying atmospheric pressure. You’ll have their attention for the whole unit.
