About This Item

Description

Ready? Aim… Launch! Kids will engineer and fire their own unique ping-pong-ball Launchers with this epic projectile motion activity from TeacherGeek. TeacherGeek activities are designed so that no two Projectile Launchers turn out the same – students can easily experiment with and learn from their creations, redesigning over and over to tackle new challenges. Create a kicker, plunger, trebuchet, or slingshot… the only limit is your imagination! Grades 3 – 12+ (different documents for different ages). Some adult assistance is helpful for 3rd-graders. Contains Latex. TeacherGeek is not a toy; it’s way better! Kids love making real things, especially when they get to use age-appropriate tools. Kids will need a Phillips screwdriver, eye safety, tape, and scissors to make their Launchers.
