Today students designed, tested, and modified mini catapults.
First we did a visual thinking activity while looking and various Catapults. Next we went over some key vocabulary. Then students were given two wooden sticks, two rubber bands, two foam beads and a ruler to build/ test and modify their catapult.
The goal was to see how far they could launch a cotton ball and if they could hit a target from three feet away.
Students did an amazing job! Our final steps were to write a reflection and research more about the history of catapults! Well done Champions!
