Challanges
Let them figure out how to and how many rubber bands are required to launch the paper cup first.
Add or reduce the number of rubber bands used so that they can identify the perfect number of rubber bands needed.
Give them a challenge to make their paper cup reach a certain height or certain floor above.
Increase the number of cups gradually once they make a launcher. Let them figure out how they can add the cups.
Questions to be asked
Will the papercup fly the same if we join the bigger side of the cup rather than the smaller ones?
Is there an alternative for rubbers? Will a thread work the same? What sets them apart?
Does the number of rubbers used affect the distance covered by the papercup? Or are there any other factors affecting it?
Does the launcher fly well even when adding more cups to it?
