Item description

There is nothing better to solidify the students understanding of Energy than to have them build and test out their mouse trap cars. Many times, students look forward to this project all year. This project allows students to visualize how elastic potential energy converts to kinetic energy. Students are always astonished to see concepts they are learning about come to life as we work on this project.

Even though I allow the students to build the mouse trap car however they like, I have included an instructional video showing how to make a mouse trap using my design. You might want to use this video because I show how to make the car in the simplest easiest way with everyday materials.


Materials:

Glue (Preferably Hot Glue Gun)
Cardboard
Bamboo Skewer
Mouse Trap
Straws
CD’s (optional)

These are NGSS-aligned lessons. Your students will engage in the three-dimensional learning by analyzing data, discussing with other students, designing experiments, and computing multiple-step calculations.

Students Will:
– Build a working mouse trap car (Video instruction included)

– Test out their mouse trap cars
– Write a report on how the mouse trap car works and the physics behind it

Lab Includes:

– Worksheets have a clear point system
– Teacher’s answers and instructions

– An instructional video with tips
– Just print and you’re ready to go

If this product could really benefit your classroom, but you are not in a good financial situation to buy the product, please contact me and I will give you the product for free, no questions asked. Raymondburnseducator@gmail.com
