A Rover’s Story - Engineering Challenge 4 Safe Landing
When Res is hurling towards Mars, he needs a parachute that will help him land safely. Can you design a parachute that will help Res land safely on Mars?
Students will design a parachute using coffee filters and will determine what canopy size is the safest for Res to use to land on Mars in this engaging and hands-on lesson.

Today students will design a mini golf hole. Their hole theme should be based on the inventor they researched.
Students will study car barrier engineering in this lesson. They will study how Newton’s Second Law of motion can be applied to determine how to decrease the force of impact during a collision. They
Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel. This hands-on lesson is scheduled to take around 15
