- Authors
Gillman, Joan
- Abstract
The article describes lessons designed for U.S. elementary school students, specifically those in 4th and 5th grade, in the creation of straw rockets. Topics discussed include how the lessons align with the book "A Framework for K-12 Science Education," how the lessons align with Common Core State Standards on the teaching of motion and stability, and a history of rockets. An introduction to how rockets work and directions for how to build a straw rocket are also provided.
