Roller Coaster Engineers lab/activity Scientific method Inquiry and Engineering - Poppa... - 0 views

  •  
    "students will become "rollercoaster engineers" by designing a coaster out of pipe insulation tubing found at most home improvement stores. Through an iterative process they will test their coaster design with their "rider" a steel ball or marble. This is a great way to address the scientific method, inquiry, and current/upcoming engineering standards in science."

Helicopter Drop - Bryce Hixson - TeachersPayTeachers.com - 0 views

  •  
    "Helicopter Drop by Bryce Hixson Take a single strip of copy paper and make three cuts and five folds to create a ready-to-fly helicopter. You can experiment with surface area and friction, and have a lot of fun adapting the design. Great way to teach the effect of gravity and friction on a falling object, experiment with torque and changing forces, and open the door to imagination and engineering."
