To get students excited about 8th grade science, we spent the last week of school studying the basics of physics and Newton's Three Laws. Students put these laws into practice by competing in Junkyard Wars. Given a limited list of supplies, students created race cars, egg parachutes, and weight-bearing structures. On Thursday, May 24th, their contraptions were put to the test as they competed against other students for the title of Junkyard Warrior!
