Rocketry

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Young scholars design and construct a paper rocket that can be launched with a drinking straw. They participate in a lecture and read an article about rocketry and how Newton's Third Law applies to rocket launches. Each student constructs their own rocket and competes to have the farthest launch.
