The completed solar cooker is then tested by cooking a basic recipe at appropriate temperatures. Up, Up, and Away This activity allows students to investigate and apply the laws of physics that govern the flight of helicopters and airplanes. Students build and launch a model rotor, simulating rotors used on helicopters to provide lift. Students then collect, share, and analyze data about the flight of their rotors. This is a design project for which students write and construct a pop-up book about women's contributions to technology and science.
Students gain information about famous women and learn basic paper engineering.
