Session L1: W5: AAPT Scheduled Workshops

What's Up There? Well, it's not Superman!

Projectiles are interesting and often give reason to go to the big field outdoors. But too frequently, a well planned lesson turns to chaos with students scattering and the rockets lost in the brush because no one watched it come down. Here are some inside lessons that get good results, no lost materials and students stay contained for the critical instruction. This is a great preliminary to the outside experience. This is suitable for all grades interested in projectile motion and the control of variables.
