Catapults
Source: One of my librarians did a catapults program over spring break!
In this pack, we included:
- 6 craft sticks
- 2 rubber bands
- 1 plastic spoon
- 1 pompom (any color or size)
- 1 instruction sheet
The instruction sheet includes the directions for building a catapult and the following extension suggestions:
Construct your catapult (instructions are on the back!) and then try this:
· Find something to aim at (not a person or pet!) and see how close you can get.
· Did you miss? Try again and adjust your aim or the amount of force you are using.
· Try shooting something else in your catapult. Does it go farther? Try something heavier. Try something lighter. What happens?
