🚀✨Mr. Belyeu's C8 Science class blasted off as they studied Newton's Third Law of Motion! 🎈💨 Their challenge: To build balloon rockets using twine, tape, straws, and of course, balloons that propel across the room in record time, mastering the art of speed and precision. With each attempt, they fine-tuned their designs, making adjustments and testing their "aircrafts" until they achieved the perfect balance of power and performance. The result? Across-the-room travels, successful vertical liftoffs, and a class with more knowledge and understanding of the principles of motion. 💥🔬
