Post: PHYSICS HELP!!!!!

Posted by HELP on 5/09/08

    Nest year will be my first year teaching high school
    physics. I love projects and I was looking for some
    veteran ideas! We are on the 90-minute block schedule and
    the class lasts a semester (18 weeks). Here are my ideas
    and I'd like more:

    Have 6 projects which last 3 weeks each. These projects
    will be done along with my teaching.

    Team/group projects
    1. Model Rockets
    2. 4-wheel drive monster trucks
    (http://www.kelvin.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?
    Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=K&Category_Code=TRLAMO)
    3. File Folder Bridges
    4. Balsa wood towers
    5. Mousetrap cars
    6. CO2 Racecars

    Whole class project
    1. Leaf Blower Hoovercraft

    Maybe cardboard chairs.

    Like everyone I guess, my main problem is money. We have
    a $20 lab fee and I have $500 of teaching money.
    Hopefully I will get some grants also.

    Anyone other ideas/advise????
