In science we were learning about Newton's first law of motion which is inertia something that still stay still until force is applied to it normally it would keep going but we have objects in the way on the planet such as Rocks grass and gravity. What was we to show inertia was we were making cotton ball launchers!
In this fun activity I found it really hard to roll the cardboard into toilet rolls the reason we have to do this is because this experiment was so short notice to our teacher that she couldn't collect toilet rolls because we were meant to do circuit boards and wiring but they hadn't arrived yet so we had to make them ourselves.
What I really enjoyed was shooting my cotton ball launcher at the big long ruler that the teacher had made with a mocha and some tape and trying to beat my friends. For most of the session I hold the record until Ruby came along and bid it.
Check out this amazing video on how to make talk cannon ball shooter with a pencil to toilet rolls to rubber bands and tape>
