BRAND NEW ROCKETRY PROGRAM FOR
KENNESAW ELEMENTARY STUDENTS

THE COSMIC COBRA ...

GOES UP AS A ROCKET...

COMES DOWN LIKE A HELICOPTER!


This is a 3-Day Class

When:  Wed March 16, Thurs Mar 17 and Launch on Friday March 18
Time:  Upon dismissal until 4 PM
Tuition: $49/student

The Cosmic Cobra is very  unique as its Nosecone is constructed  with Helicopter Blades, so that upon decent, the Rocket itself returns to earth on a streamer, and the Nosecone comes down separately as a Helicopter!

The Students will also Learn about Newton's 3rd Law
 "For every Action, There is an Equal and Opposite Reaction" by doing hands-on, Super Fun Experiments!

 Agenda:

Wed- ROCKET CONSTRUCTION 

  We will totally construct our Rocket, Design it and get it ready for our Liftoff! Launch on Friday.

Thurs- MAD SCIENTIST DAY

Learning something easy or learning something which may be considered "hard" for a certain age group is the same...

It is "learning"...

What seems to be Hard becomes Easy when the students get to learn by "Doing";  this how they really
"Get it" and retain what they have learned.

Learning the Liftoff! way is done by Making Learning Tons of Fun!

We will be doing some hands on experiments which will give the students a full understanding of Newton's 3rd Law!

Once enrolled, we will email you with exactly what we will be  doing on Thursday, and of course, just like on Launch Day parents are all invited to join us!

Friday-Launch Day

We will Launch our Cosmic Cobras, each student getting two launches.

THE BIG OL'  FAT BABY BERTHA ROCKET IS COMING TO STILL!


This is one of our favorite rockets!
It is challenging enough for established Rocketeers and appropriate for First Time Rocket Students.

This is  a 3-day class.  Class #1 - we will construct 90% of our rocket.  Rockets will be taken back to the Rocket Shop to be spray Painted a base color (choices given) and then returned to students in their next class.

Class #2 - We will finish constructing the rocket,  decorate, and Prep it for Flight for Launch Day.  Here students will learn about engines, insulation, Flight, and Launch Day procedures. 

On Launch day the Rockets will be  given to the students (theirs to keep after Launching).  Students will launch their rockets once, individually, and then in a drag race with their friends,, usually 5 in the air at once!  Lots of fun!

  
We look forward to seeing you soon!

A percentage of tuition is donated  to the Still  !  Thanks for your participation!


FLYING SAUCER INVASION COMING TO STILL ELEMENTARY!

BUILD AND LAUNCH YOUR OWN FLYING SAUCER!

We are looking forward to bringing our Flying Saucer Workshop to Still!

This is a 2- day class:  One for Construction and one for Launching!

Everyone is invited to Launch Day!   All info will be sent to you via email.
