3, 2, 1...Take Cover! Making Lego® Catapults
Class experience

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.
