My Project

My students love studying science and working together. They come from a variety of social and economic backgrounds. They would absolutely love to work as a team of engineers and build model rockets. Students will then be able to launch their team rockets in front of our school community. The supplies we need are engineers and a launch pad. These supplies would make our launch run smoothly. We will be studying Newton's Three Laws of Motion and my students will be able to demonstate a wonderful example of the third law of motion. My students would love being true science leaders at our school.
