We've discovered that plants disperse their seeds in many different ways. Some plants actually 'catapult' their seeds in order to reach their maximum growing potential. So, for our Weekly Design Challenge, we designed catapults using milk cartons, toilet paper rolls, popsicle sticks, plastic spoons, and masking tape. Our designs were amazing! Once the building process was complete, we tested our catapults. Some were able to launch seeds the length of 13 floor tiles in the hallway. WOW!!
