What could be more fun than making cannons and firing pompoms around the classroom?
In this high-interest activity, students construct a modified torus cannon to examine how air moves and experiment with payload sizes and distance.
In this design challenge, students work in pairs to construct and test their own modified torus cannons.  Starting with the smallest pompom, students will conduct a series of trials and measure how close each pompom gets to the target.
The Brown Bag STEM Challenge bundle pack includes 10 high-interest design challenges that use low-cost materials that (almost all) fit into a brown bag! Challenges comes complete with design briefs, STEM notebook pages and a PDF slide deck. In each challenge, students work in teams to design, build and test solutions, following NGSS Engineering Design Performance Expectations.
