3, 2, 1...Blast Off!

Thanks to a little space unit at school the kids got excited about rockets! 

We practiced our cutting, writing, and sequencing skills with this little activity from Homeschool Creations.

 We set up our stomp rocket.
(I have secretly wanted one of these for a while)

We took turns counting backwards, blasting our rockets, and marking their location with our paper rockets. The kids figured out on their own that two feet made their rockets go way higher.

I see a lot of fun afternoons and experiments in our future. :)
