Rockets are fun for all ages and can be used to teach in a way that students will truly understand the concepts being taught. They will be able to make informed design changes based on data collected.
By providing a hands-on activity, the students will be engaged in learning the engineering behind flight and propulsion to design their rockets to fly the highest! Hands on activities such as this can be a great opportunity to build on teamwork and civil discourse!
Once they master design and launching of their water bottle rockets, they will be challenged with the payload rockets to not only launch high but recover undamaged cargo (an unbroken egg)!
