This is a simple lesson that explores the science behind pendulums. Students make a basic pendulum to explore the variables of mass and string length, and compare results to their knowledge of the
In this hands-on lesson, students create solid fuel rockets to explore the idea of parabolic motion and outside factors which can affect the path of a rocket. This lesson has enrichment involving the
This is the 3rd part of the lesson series where students will determine the thrust and stability of their water bottle rockets to answer their essential question: Using the Design Process how can we
