Description

August: Knock down objects. Throw “cannon balls” through hoops. HIt a bullseye over forty feet away. 

In the August Design Lab Workshop we will build a dual-purpose machine that operates using tension or torsion (simple catapult), and operates using gravity power (trebuchet).

Explore the machines using the elements of S.T.E.A.M. and modify them to throw further and with more accuracy.
