Homework for today is to complete the task set for you by your group. You might have been assigned a research question, building a water bottle rocket (you have a sheet on how to do this, or you can check out these directions: http://www.tclauset.org/21_BtlRockets/BTL.html ), or bring in materials your group needs. Don't let them down! You need to be prepared to do your experiment and launch your rockets next class - September 8/9, weather permitting.
After analyzing the data from your experiment, and those of others, you will build your own personal rocket. Your first launch will be September 15/16, weather and other factors permitting, and you will attempt a second launch of an improved design Sept. 22/24.
There will be several tasks that will allow you to demonstrate different course standards during this project. More on this next week. For now, focus on doing what your group needs and enjoying yourself.
