Students practice stepping and jumping, using specified foot action, in rhythm. In groups, they practice jumping onto stomp rocket launchers and demonstrate how to increase the distance by raising the angle of the launcher. After each...

Eighth graders create rockets that be launched at varying angles to determine which angle is best to launch at for the longest distance.

Students explore aviation.  In this physics lesson, students work cooperatively to construct kites, paper airplanes, and paper plate discs. Students launch the object created and observe characteristics and length of flight. ...
