Newton's third law of motion takes off as design teams launch balloon-powered rockets to explore the forces behind movement.
Simple horizontal or vertical tasks develop problem-solving and engineering skills as students modify a basic balloon rocket to meet challenges such as farthest distance or highest payload lift.
Materials support 15 design teams. Includes teacher's manual, student guide, and FREE 1-year access to digital resources that support three-dimensional instruction.
