G2 Rocket Launch

Our Primary field was full of action on Monday morning as our Grade 2 students did a second launch of the rockets they designed. Our students had a trial run the previous week that required them to go back and rework their designs to see if they could get their rocket to travel further the second time. As part of our unit of inquiry on 'How the world works', our Grade 2 students have been inquiring into different kinds of forces; an exploration of forces and magnetism; and the connection between forces and motion. The rocket launch was a learning activity designed to incorporate much of that learning into one project. Our students were cheered on by our Primary students, our teachers, and many families. Thank you to everyone who came out to support our engineers!
