The Science Club learned about Newton’s First Law of Motion today and applied what they learned by building a race car using an empty plastic bottle, straws, wooden skewers, bottle cap wheels, a balloon and a rubber band. They tested them, improved their designs and then raced them in the classroom. So cool!
