- Understanding the difference between air and water pressure
- Learning about the properties of water, such as its ability to flow and be directed
- Exploring the concept of force and how it can be used to propel water
- Understanding the importance of safety when using tools and materials
- Developing problem-solving skills by figuring out how to attach the water source to the air pump
Continued development could include experimenting with different types of nozzles to see how they affect the water flow, exploring the concept of buoyancy by using the water cannon to launch objects, or learning about the science behind water pressure and how it is used in everyday life.
