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

Design Your Own Experiment: Waves + Communication | Water Wave Breaker

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
