Flash Drives- ROCKETS
This Monday we are going to spend our time in the computer lab. I will be showing the kids how to save data on their flash drives. Remember to bring them.
In class we have just finished our rocket lab, with the question
"What straw will fly the furthest, striped or clear?" Students really seemed to enjoy the launching of the straws. We are going to use the data we collected and write our observations and conclusions. Check back for the data results!!
