Have a Blast, Safely!
Roy, Ken
Science Scope, v29 n3 p46-47 Nov-Dec 2005
Model rocketry is one of the best ways to get students interested in the physical sciences. Following safety guidelines, rocketry can really turn students on to science and also help them understand the applications of theories and scientific principles (Newton's laws of motion, force, mass, projectile motion, etc.) they are learning. The study and use of rocketry provides a hands-on, process- and inquiry-based science experience for students. It presents problem-solving approaches for students at all levels.
