Straw Rocket Engineering
Today we will engineer air powered rockets. To do this we will:
Watch a video and note the shape of rockets and learn about countdown and liftoff
Name shapes as we brainstorm and sketch plans
Build and launch our rockets
Measure and record data about the flight
Collaborate and communicate effectively with others

In this engaging lesson, students will connect the path of a straw rocket to the arc of a parabola. By changing the angle of the launcher, they will discover the relationship between distance and
This lesson uses a diagram of a football being punted to demonstrate the forces of motion and the transfer of energy. Students are then challenged to apply what they learned to engineer a mechanical
Does light have energy? In this lesson, students will engage in a practical experiment to witness how light can induce changes such as heating, altering colors, and setting objects in motion. As
