Strawket STEM Project

This STEM project combines engineering skills with math and language arts. Students will be tasked with designing a “rocket” that is powered by wind. Using only straws, paper, and tape, students will try to create the rocket that flies the farthest. Throughout the process, students will use the data from their rockets to work with multiple math standards such as fractions, line plots and conversions.
There are also several cross-curricular extensions included!
