    Activity set – Rockets. For my class we would start by watching a video of a rocket launch. We would then learn about the different elements of a rocket before making our own mouse rocket. After the children have made their own mouse rocket and tested it on the same container. I would pose the question whether a different container would change their mouse rocket launch and ask for their predictions. I would then give them a variety of containers to experiment and investigate, reporting back their findings. In a subsequent lesson, the class would then work together in groups to make their own spacecraft using fizzy tablets. The class will discuss their designs and consider other objects that fly through the sky and their design.
