SUMMARY:Sock Launcher Catapult Challenge Workshop Alachua
DESCRIPTION:Sock Launcher Catapult Challenge – Aim\, Launch\, Score! \nJoin us for an exciting 2-hour STEM adventure in the Sock Launcher Catapult Workshop! In this hands-on challenge\, students will dive into the world of force\, motion\, and engineering as they explore the mechanics behind catapults. Their mission? Design and build a working catapult that can successfully launch a sock into a laundry hamper using everyday materials. \nGuided by the Engineering Design Process in a STEM Fair-style format\, students will brainstorm\, sketch\, build\, test\, and improve their sock-launching devices. Along the way\, they’ll learn key physics concepts like trajectory\, tension\, and energy transfer—while having a blast turning a common household chore into a competitive engineering feat. \nWhat to Expect: \n\n\nLearn the science behind catapult mechanics and projectile motion \n\n\nUse the Engineering Design Process to solve a real-world problem \n\n\nBuild and test a functional catapult using household and craft materials \n\n\nCompete in a friendly challenge to launch socks into a laundry hamper \n\n\nDevelop teamwork\, creativity\, and critical thinking skills \n\n\nWorkshop Details: \n\n\nDuration: 2 hours \n\n\nDate: Tuesday September 30th 2025 12:30 pm – 2:30 pm \n\n\nLocation: The Old School House\, 23760 NW 187th Ave\, High Springs\, FL 32643 \n\n\nCost: $40.00 all materials provided \n\n\nPerfect for curious minds and creative thinkers\, this workshop turns learning into an unforgettable experience. Register today and let your child engineer a solution that’s both educational and hilariously fun!
