Reply To: Module 5 – Rockets & Alien Chemistry

Hi Deirdre,

to make working models that can be tested, I’d suggest giving each child a fizzy tablet tube and then use the “pop rocket” idea.

If children just create rocket shapes from junk art then it will be hard for them to launch.

Children could find out if warm water is better than cold, if two tablets are better than one. Caution – you won’t know when these are going to launch, so stand back!
