  1. Materials:

    empty film canister

    construction paper

    tape

    scissors

    baking soda

    vinegar

    Instructions

    When you do this, make sure you do it outside.

    Roll a piece of construction paper around the film canister so that you have a long tube.

    Make sure that the cover of the film canister is the bottom end of the tube. Tape the construction paper in place.

    Make a nose cone by cutting a circle out of construction paper.

    Cut a line to the middle of the circle - the radius - and twist the paper into a cone shape.

    Tape the ends together and tape it on top of the construction paper tube.

    You may want to put some fins on the end opposite the nose cone. These can stabilize the rocket.

    Take off the cover of the film canister. Put a small amount of baking soda (we'll let you figure how much works best) in the film canister and some vinegar (we'll let you figure how much works best) and cover quickly.

    Set the rocket down so that the nose cone points up.

    Stand back and get ready for blast-off!!

    Or, wih a soda bottle:

    Get a one liter bottle or water bottle. Smaller bottles will work also. The bottle has to be plastic.

    Put vinegar into the bottle so the bottle is filled up about one inch.

    Put some baking soda (baking powder works too but not as well) in a plastic bag. Putting it in a small object like a cylinder of paper with one end sealed works as well.

    Seal the bag and put it into the bottle.

    Close the bottle all the way.

    Shake the bottle for 5-10 seconds.

    Throw down onto pavement.

    Watch the bottle fly!
