Rocket Launch

The children in 2nd and 3rd class were attempting to fly to space this week! The children have been working hard to design and create their very own rockets!

The children were all given the challenge to build and launch a rocket. To make it a fair test, each child had the same materials, 1 piece of paper and 1 paper straw, to build their rocket. The children tested different options before deciding on their designs. Once built, we tried launching the rockets outside. We discussed ways that we could make sure it was a fair test-all launching from the same height and angle. The children then took turns launching their rockets!
