Three, Two, One …BLAST OFF!


Astro Cymru came in to talk to us about rockets! After she talked to us  it was time to make our own rocket! We made a cone shape out of paper for the top of the rocket and then we could design our own wings. We had to make them aerodynamic! After break time we went over to the field to launch them… the woman had a pad with a stand that when you press the button it would shoot up in the air they went really high!

A couple of days later we had bottles of coke and some mentos. We made our own rockets using a chemical reaction. We put the mentos into the coke and whoosssh! The last one was the biggest one because we put loads of mentos in it and it went really high. We all had a go of putting the mentos in but we had to run fast when we did or we would get splashed with coke (and no one wanted that!).
