Week Seven Complete
For those of you watching at home, this week went pretty well. Our goals were to continue working on understanding how to puzzle through projectile problems in anticipation of the upcoming "Angry Birds", Rocket to Mars project. We also wanted to finish the Right Stuff so that we could discuss more about all the things that can and did go wrong with the space program. And finally we wanted to get started on the Rocket project. All things considered, we did a pretty good job. Kids are having fun. People are getting more first hand experience on using physics to solve real problems. A pretty good week!
Next week we begin the Habitats!
