Stem Challenge- Launching Army Men

STEM Challenge: Launching Army Men -Science 10

I decided to do this activity as a fun way to get my students engaged in the ever daunting physics unit in science 10. This activity was very easy to set up and I already had access to most of the materials at school. The basic idea of this was to create a launcher or sling shot with the materials you are given that will launch your army man the farthest. I gave each group 3 tries as sometime the launch didn’t go as planned. We marked the farthest launch and I had a prize for the winning group.
