Description

Class Experience

In this class, we will look at labeled drawings of catapults and talk about the key components of them. Builders will then use Lego® bricks to create their own catapults. Once everyone has built a catapult, builders will launch marshmallows, mini-figures, or small bricks and measure the distance. Builders will be encouraged to make small changes to their catapults and to notice how those changes impact the performance of their catapults. 

This class will be highly interactive. Students will...

Please bring a tub of building bricks of all shapes and sizes. Wheel pieces can be helpful but are not required.  
*Small marshmallows or other small, light, soft objects to launch are an optional but fun supply that students can bring to class. Small building bricks will work for launching.

Students are also invited to bring a tape measure or ruler, and a pencil and paper to record their launch results if they would like.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

30 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
