Academic Skills and Content: This project is aligned to the following Next Generation Science Standards:

  • HS-PS2-1. Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration.
  • HS-ETS1-2. Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.

Additionally, productive group work and collaboration are taught and assessed.

Final Product: In this project, students build and test a bottle rocket and rocket launcher, and justifying their design choices using their knowledge of physics.  Their content knowledge regarding the mechanics of forces at play in the rocket is assessed through a traditional quiz.

Suggested Duration: 4 weeks
