Water Rocket Project Rubric

The Water Rocket Project Rubric has been placed on the Water Rocket Project Info Tab.  You should take a look at it.  Also, be sure to start your planning and construction now so you don't get super stressed the week it is due.

I have an idea of how we can have launches on both Thursday May 16th and Friday May 17th even if sophomores are taking the ECA on Thursday.  I have looked at the numbers of sophomores and juniors in each of the 4 periods of Honors Physics.  The idea is that on Thursday while the sophomores are taking their English 10 ECA, the juniors will be launching the rockets.  On Friday, the sophomores will be launching their rockets while the juniors watch.  This actually works out nicely because it will allow each person/pair to get multiple launches in (possibly more than 3; time permitting).  I will discuss this idea with you tomorrow.

Feel free to post in the comments section.  :-)
