Ping Pong Poppers
To demonstrate Newton's second law of motion, we created ping pong poppers using toilet paper rolls, elastic bands, saran wrap, and paper clips. They were hard to put together, but the students persevered and built them! The most fun was shooting them in class and seeing how far the ping pong would go! Target practice!!! Then we went outside to shoot our ping pongs and watched how far they traveled!There is nothing more exciting in school than having a ping pong ball to play with!!! Simple and elegant!

I love this idea! I'd love to use this with my gifted aerodynamics students. Could you share the plans for the poppers? My email is kbone@lcisd.org
