Building a paper tower/wall......and.....Rocket time...........at the Senior Centre


Today's Senior Scientists class challenge: 
BUILDING a TOWER and a WALL from single sheets of newspaper
 and tape..






Everyone did a great job, some individually, others working with a partner.

Then, ROCKET TIME!!


         


Had some sciency fun this morning with my Senior Scientists building and launching paper rockets - supported by a super cake snack made by FF................every rocket, powered by carbon dioxide (from half an effervescent denture cleaning tablet and water) escaping fast from a small plastic film container.....hit the ceiling!!





All the senior scientists made super rockets!!

PS:
Email me if you want the instructions on how to make a small rocket...........
