This kit is packed with parts, including a beautiful, precision, brass colored balance scale to measure mass, a hover puck, a jet car that really zooms, the components to make your own spring meter, an accurate to 1/100 of a second stop watch to clock speed, velocity and acceleration and the tubes, stoppers and inflation needle to launch both water rockets and baking soda rockets. Each project has been refined, through years of testing and feedback, into age appropriate fun.
Develops an understanding of Newton's fundamental laws of motion. There is so much depth to this title that a surprising percentage of the students in our summer camps have communicated that they partied with the materials when they were younger and then revisited the book and projects a second and even a third time as they grew older and understood it with an ever deepening comprehension. Like other classic titles you learn more each time you visit it.
Older siblings and envious older students frequently comment, "I am just learning that now. Why didn't I have this when I was younger?" |
