STIIX Rocket Project

• Grades: K-8
• Number of Students: 8-24, 15-45
• Hours of Content: 2-3
• Additional resources: Lesson Plan

Highlights:

Explore Concepts & Careers around ROCKETS before building / testing one of your own!

Objective: 

Students will apply principles of aerodynamics, propulsion, and design to build and test rockets made from cardstock and craft materials.

Set in the rapidly advancing city of STIIX-Ville, students are commissioned to help launch the town’s first space exploration program by developing a high performing rocket prototype. Through this hands-on challenge, students will investigate flight stability, thrust, and iterative design while documenting their engineering process and analyzing launch results.
