This lesson plan focuses on force and how it can be applied through the paper ball launcher. Students will build a launcher using the engineering design process and use the model to hit a target at

Students will have fun building and testing with KidSpark observing and calculating forces such as load and effort.

Students will listen to a story then participate in a Round Robin discussion. After the Round Robin activity, students will make a reindeer and race it against another student's reindeer.

Students create a reindeer to learn about force and see how far their reindeer can fly. They can track their distance and make improvements on their reindeer. Enrichments students can see how weight
