Force & Motion

Students applied their knowledge of force and motion concepts to construct a marshmallow launcher. The launcher was constructed from a paper cut and a balloon. After following directions, it was time to apply our knowledge and have some fun launching marshmallows across the basketball court! Students were able to apply different levels of force in order to launch the marshmallow different distances.

A large portion of science includes scientific investigation and reasoning. The students develop abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry in classroom and outdoor investigations and learn how to plan and conduct descriptive investigations.
