#1, Air has weight -- Make a balance scale with a ruler, balance deflated balloons on each end. Inflate one balloon, notice that balloon is heavier. Nugget initially thought air had no weight and so the balloons would remain balanced; she was quite surprised when she saw the inflated balloon hanging lower! We recorded our observations.
#2, Air takes up space -- Crumple a paper towel at the bottom of a cup, invert and place in colored water. Remove and notice the paper is dry! Poke a hole in the bottom of the cup so the air can escape, note the water now enters the cup and soaks the paper towel.
