As an intro to Thermal Energy, students are challenged to create a warmer that will keep my coffee warm. Students project will be tested in class, data will be collected, compared, and graphed.

This lesson is part four of four lessons, which culminates in the flight of drones built by the students. Lesson 4: FLY focuses on the controller pairing and functions, troubleshooting possible

The students design and test a catapult using simple materials like popsicle sticks and rubber bands. They learn about the history of catapults and also about the physical science concepts related to
