Which Ramp Angle Produces the Fastest Speed?
In this lesson students will discover the best angle that will produce the fastest speed for a hot wheel vehicle when traveling 1 meter. Students will also practice calculating speed (speed=distance/time), measuring the height of the books as well as the angle of the ramp to discover which angle produces the fastest speed.
Students will also write a hypothesis statement using “if”, “then” and “because”, determine the independent and dependent variable, as well as creating a scatter plot graph and conclude which angle produces the fastest speed.

Students will learn about forces and motion by building a straw rocket. They will measure how far their rocket flies and then build a second rocket to see if they can make it go farther.
Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel. This hands-on lesson is scheduled to take around 15
