Rocket Mania

Hello everybody! I hope you all had a good three day weekend. Shame about the Chargers, though I still think they can make the playoffs. I'm writing today because we began Rocket Week just a few minutes ago and your students are likely to bring home quite a bit of work as far as constructing, changing and testing rockets. They were given just a few minutes today to get their rockets together and, unfortunately, it looks like that's going to make the majority of their adjustments at home, especially for our final launch day on Friday. I'll try to put up the assignment overview and data sheets on my DP later today, but I really have high hopes for this project and it's exciting to see how interested the students are already. I think we're going to have a lot of fun and learn a lot this week. Updates to follow -Mr. H
