Rie made a Bottle Rocket on Thursday. We needed a pump bottle, Eno powder and half a cup of water. The first attempt failed, but then Louise suggested we shake up the mixture in the bottle, this did it and the rocket blasted up into the air and landed on the art room roof then rolled onto the ground. The children all cheered and more came running for a look from inside. Rie mixed up the ingredients for a third then fourth rocket. Some children counted "5, 4, 3, 2, 1.. blast off". We lost the rocket on the fourth landing to the KIDSPACE roof, but will try again once we have more Pump bottles. This was great fun with science. Jessie
