In Te Ngahere some engineers named Troy and Gestarvo came in to our class. They talked to us about how rockets needs stability, thrust and drag to make them fly. But, when the thrust runs out the rocket goes down because of the weight and drag. Once we finished talking about that we all went out on the deck to watch a couple of people test the launcher .Then we all went back into class to work on an activity to create a rocket. We used shapes and then added arrows facing the way it will go with thrust and without thrust. If we finished that we had a chance to start creating the look of our own rocket. Here is a picture of what I did for the activity. Have you done the Wonder Project before?
