PROJECTILE MOTION IN ACTION: How To Make a Spy Balloon Catapult

PROJECTILE MOTION IN ACTION :How to make a spy balloon catapult (Design, Build and Test Spy Balloon Catapult)
This lesson Plan will focus on different fun and engaging activities pertaining to one of the most complicated lesson in Physics which is projectile motion. At the end of this lesson students are expected to:
1. Explain how a net force is required for an object’s movement to change.
2.Develop a mathematical model, using Newton’s laws, to predict the motion of an object in two dimensions ( projectile and circular motion.)
3.Use mathematics and computational thinking to explain how Newton’s laws are used in engineering and technologies to create products to serve human ends.
4.Investigate and explain projectile motion.
5.Collaborate, communicate effectively with their group mates and use creativity and critical thinking skill to complete an engineering design
6. Design and engineer catapult blades that shoot down a spy balloon.
This lesson plan will take 2 to 4 days or more
