Model Workshops

Students building model boost gliders and rockets

Model workshops are a mainly hands-on learning experience for students. Students will apply their knowledge from the instructors’ presentations and design model gliders and egg-drop landers. Each student is provided with materials and, with online assistance from the staff, builds the models.  We’ll have you launch your models at home by filming the flights.
