The Rocket Project

A group of children working in the Science/Maths room were inspired to create rockets from some of the literature we have read.  Some children brought along their own resources to assist with the making of the models.  The children used cardboard and various other materials to make rockets.

My rocket travels to Venus. It measures the temperature of the climate. It usually travels 80 miles an hour. It has 6 astronauts. It has three very large boosters so it can go very fast. It’s top speed 180 miles an hour. It has a long orange ladder, so the astronauts can climb up to the door. It has silver inside to protect the astronauts from the heat of the boosters.

My rocket is called Rocket Booster. My rocket travels to space. It has two astronauts and three robots. The robots sing songs for astronauts. It travels very fast, but you can still see it. My rocket has twelve silver lights to help the astronauts see in space. The silver lights are on the front of the rocket ship. There is a large telescope on my rocket and one of the astronauts is looking through the lens to see if there are any aliens. They went into space.
