The 8th grade Introduction to Engineering class
with their bottle rockets. The students built the bottle rockets from empty
plastic bottles, then shot them off using just air the first time, then
added water the second time. The majority of rockets flew twice as high
with the water, reaching a height of approximately 70 feet. During the
project the students learned about rocket history, Newton's Law of Motion,
and how to calculate the height their rocket reached. The rocket kits were
purchased from Gear Up II funds. Students in the picture from left to right
are: Laurene Elder, Chasten Brown, Terran Vanator, Cole Frei, Kennedy Reiger,
Tiffany Sonnen, Mykaela McWilliams, Nicole Poxleitner, Cody Lockhart, Jon
Halligan, Selena Davila, Faith Uhlenkott, Chaye Uptmor, Kylie Tidwell,
Laina Sonnen, Tyson Schlader, AJ Everson, and Stephanie Jungert, Not pictured
are Noah Arnzen and Britney Bianchi. Click on the photo for a larger
