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 project, 8th-grade students will engage in hands-on exploration of elastic potential energy and its conversion to kinetic energy using small catapults. Through experimentation and data
Students will use geometric reasoning and the engineering design process to construct solar ovens while learning about renewable energy.
In this hands-on and engaging lesson, students build and launch model rockets. They explore the forces acting on the rocket and design an experiment They predict the time to apogee based on
