This is the 3rd part of a 4 part 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
Teams brainstorm ideas that meet the size and material design constraints and create prototype bridges of the most promising solutions. They test their bridges to see how much weight they can hold
In groups of 2-4, students will work through the Engineering Design process on building a tower as tall as possible with 100 index cards, that supports the weight of an object, chosen by the teacher.
Students will be given foil and scissors to start making a boat. Students will also have a $15 budget to purchase additional supplies to help build their boat. Their boat will be put into water and be
In this activity, we will embark on a thrilling journey of exploration and discovery as we design, construct, and launch our very own rockets using pool noodles and rubber bands. But before we dive
