de-rocketscienceCalling all scientists! Blast off in this issue by building and launching a rocket! Young physicists will learn the qualities of pressure and force and understand how propellants move things forward in a simple—and safe—experiment. A empty plastic soda bottle, a bucket and bike pump will launch you on your way. Trials with different kinds of liquids offer repeated opportunities for observation and conclusions. Get ready to blast off!

In this issue students will:

  • Conduct an investigation
  • Follow written directions
  • use the newspaper to blast off with vocabulary
  • Make observations and draw conclusions
  • Understand propellants, force and motion
  • Complete a “cloze” activity with nouns, adjectives and verbs
