Rockets

On Tuesday a man who designed rockets came in and showed us his model rocket. First he set up the launch pad then put the cables together, then he did a 10 second countdown and then zoom the rockets shoot 60 feet of the ground in a second. Then the parachute popped out. It hurt your ears when it shot up into the sky. It smelt like Rotorua after it landed, the rocket only worked once. I can't wait to design my rocket I'm very excited. James and I are designing our rockets on Friday. I wanted to have a small rocket but  there was a restricted height, half a meter so I had to extend my design because it wasn't tall enough. James is doing well on his design. He made his design quite well.
