Ethan had his first big homework project to build a rocket. It was a family affair with dad helping during the initial design stages. Ethan and dad found two large wrapping paper tubes and cut them to size. They also used some balsa wood for the cone nose and fins. The picture above is Ethan standing outside of his school with the rocket.

After the boys finished gluing the pieces together. Ethan and mom worked on decorating. We used foil and construction paper. We cut out designs in the construction paper and layered with different colors.We were all very happy with the rocket. Ethan's rocket was the biggest rocket in Ms. Collin's Kinder class. Ethan also reported that his was the second biggest in the whole school! The picture above is of Ethan in his classroom.
