Classroom Catapult STEM Project: Students build their own mini catapults and test launch distance and trajectory. Activity fits within a single class period. Designed for classrooms, after-school programs, summer camps, and libraries.
Complete Supplies for 5 Builds: Includes 55 craft sticks, 50 rubber bands, 5 Plastic Cups, 5 Foam cubes, 5 Adhesive pads. All materials are organized and ready to hand out — no additional supplies needed.
Hands-On Physics in Action: Students adjust the fulcrum position to change launch trajectory, directly applying concepts of potential and kinetic energy, leverage. Encourages structured experimentation and critical thinking.
Supports Independent Student Work: Step-by-step instructions allow students to build and test with minimal teacher intervention.
Durable, Reliable Components: Craft sticks and hardware are designed to hold up through repeated launches. Consistent results across all student builds reduce troubleshooting time.
