Third Grade Rockets

Third graders explored forces and motion using straw rockets that they then launched with air! 
After each launch, students measured the distance that their rocket traveled. Students selected one variable -- launch angle or launch force -- to see what effect it would have on the distance the rocket traveled. The next step is for students to make modifications to their rocket and investigate what changes will help their rocket fly even farther!
