Rockets
In this workshop students learn about the various topics involved in rocket making.
We will learn about :
The forces affecting rockets
The history and types of rockets over the ages
The shapes involved to make them aerodynamic.
Students then use the knowledge gained to create and design their very own rocket. Each rocket is launched to ascertain which design reaches the greatest altitude.
