Our Students will build rockets and change certain variables to see how the flight patterns change using the requested Rocket Engines, altimeter, hidden camera, and other items. They will look at the different altitudes the rockets will reach, they will change the weight of the rocket and see how that affects the flight, and they will see how angles affect the direction and the height of the rockets. We will then plot our results and have class discussions on what affected the flight patterns of the rockets. They will get to record each launch so that they can see what needs to get fixed on the launch. They will take design into consideration as well.
