Richfield Public Schools Community Education

Launch and watch your very own rocket speed 300 feet into the air! Then it is yours to take home! Students will make and take home multiple rockets of varying difficulty throughout this session. We will use these rockets and airplanes to investigate basic aeronautical concepts including: propulsion, thrust, lift, drag and more. We will also hypothesize about travel in outer space, how to get a United States astronaut to Mars and life on Mars. NOTE: Parents will be asked to contribute two 2 liter soda bottles (empty) for 2 different experiments. If you are signed up for both a morning and an afternoon enrichment class during this week, your child will be supervised over the lunch hour. Please send them with a bag lunch each day.
