Pi-Day Catapult — Optimize Angle & Tension (Predict vs. Measure) | MS–HS NGSS

Created by

Description (NGSS included) Celebrate Pi-Day with a data-driven projectile challenge! Students tune angle and tension on a simple launcher, then predict vs. measure range and compute percent error. Teams graph Range vs. Angle (and optional Range vs. Pullback) and explain results with CER. 🧠📈 🔬 Investigate: hold one variable constant to fairly test the other. 🧮 Model: use a calibration shot or R ≈ (v²·sin(2θ))/g to predict. 📊 Analyze: compare predicted vs. measured; percent error

Projectile Motion Lab [AP, IB, AS, and Honors Level Physics]

Created by

Telescope Teaching

This lab is intended for physics students who are familiar with 1-dimensional motion equations, the concepts of displacement, velocity, and acceleration, and introduced to projectile motion. Students will be using both an experimental and theoretical approach to determine the horizontal range of a projectile and comparing the two results. I have personally used this lab with IB Physics students and it is a fan-favorite! I have used this lab in both an in-person and a virtual setting. The lab ca

STEM Flight with Straw Rocket a Science and Engineering Challenge Activity

Created by

Kiwiland

This STEM science and engineering challenge will challenge students concept of flight. The lesson begins with a technology challenge to construct a straw rocket with the materials given and then leads into questions about design, and launch angle. This pack contains everything you need (except straws). All you need to do is print it off and you are up and running. It can be used as either a group activity or an individual. I usually do it as a group as then you can allocate members various role

Design Your Own Experiment: Characteristics of Waves Lab | Waves +Communication

Created by

The STEAM inquiry Lab

Give students real ownership of the scientific process with this Inquiry Learning Experiment Design Project Prompt. Instead of following a step-by-step lab, students design their own experiment using classroom materials you already have. With structured thinking prompts (but plenty of creative freedom), students plan an investigation that demonstrates the skills they’ve been learning, then write and reflect on what happened, even if their results are messy or their experiment “fails.” This re
