$430.00 CAD

July 25 @ 9:00 am – July 29 @ 3:30 pm EDT

It is rocket science! Let’s learn about rockets in flight and the four forces that act on them: weight, thrust, and the two aerodynamic forces, lift and drag. Kids will be making sled kites to learn about drag, experimenting with a Pop Can “Hero Engine”, making, designing and launching a bottle rocket, and tracking the flight of our rocket with a homemade Launch Altitude Tracker. We will be learning about inspiring STEM trailblazers: Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, Lillian Todd and Mary Jackson. 

This week is fun and popular!  Can’t wait to see you! 

Registration opens Tuesday February 15th @ 7am.
