Dr. Kaboom https://www.doktorkaboom.com/video Agent: Simon Shaw, 919-392-6739, [email protected] It’s Just Rocket Science (Grades 3-5): Described as “part Mr. Wizard and part Mr. Rogers,” Doktor Kaboom uses the excitement of rocketry to present Newton’s Laws of Motion in multiple, over-the-top, demonstrations. Each of Newton’s 3 laws is clearly explained, comically demonstrated, and followed by a DIY project that students can do as a class, in groups, or individually. 3 Laws, 3 lessons, 3 projects! Throughout the course, Doktor Kaboom intersperses the lessons with discussions on safety and personal empowerment. Of particular focus here is using rocket science to prove that “science is for everyone, not just the person who wins the sci- ence fair every year.” Ties directly to new science standards. Includes printable materials for worksheets, discussions, and multiple student demos for each section. This is the perfect program for introducing or reviewing the physics of motion.
