super science

Today is my last day as Super Science Teacher (how awesome is that job title?) at Tobin. We are going to make, and launch, rockets.

Here is my prototype. The nose is crumpled because it hit my ceiling when I tested it out. :-)

Here is the pattern that I used, from the exploratorium.

Edit: The rockets were super awesome! The kids had a great time coloring them, cutting out the fins (Caellum added eight fins in total), and especially launching them out by the playground. They flew a lot higher than I thought they would; two rockets in the kindergarten class got stuck on the roof! And the older kids had fun seeing whose could go the furthest. I think it was Vincent who said this was the best science class ever, haha. From him, that means a lot.
