Good Uses for Broken Rockets?

Classroom Decoration.

Great Idea. Has it piqued anyones curiosity?
Would have been cool if I had a wall like that in me math class.
HMMM,do they bring sniffers (dogs) threw the school? Wonder if they (dogs) would hit on the motor/ejection residue?

That's cool. Are you a teacher, or just donate the items to the school?

Biography:
I'm a homebrewer, a math teacher, and I launch rockets. 'Nuff said.

Cool! I've been trying to start a rocketry club at my school, but I haven't found any teachers that are interested yet.
BTW, nice computer lab! I wish my school had iMacs like that-- my middle school had a few, but they all had slots for floppy disks. (Not kidding!)

As above, I'm a math teacher. I'm trying to get a rocket club started at my school, and if I can get a critical mass, hopefully get them into TARC. To start off, I'm going to help with the existing science club, trying to build up the number of students.

The iMacs are nice, but as of now, only 3 out of the 8 of them work. I don't have admin privileges or the wireless password and so am waiting on the IT dept. to come and connect them to the school wireless.

I remember well - I grew up with 5 1/4" floppies.

That's good, I wish you luck on getting a rocket club started!

As for computers, those came 4 years after I graduated, yea I am that old!!

Not trying to be mean or anything, but at my old highschool (I do online schooling now) students would of ripped those off the wall so fast it wouldnt even be funny.
I wouldnt do that, but I went to a bad school and I know that some of the students would of taken/broke them just for the laughs.
Someone stole a deer head that was mounted on my computer teachers wall, taxadermi animals cost hundreds of dollars so It is really a mean thing to do.
Hope you teach at a better school then I went to, other then that concern that is a really nice idea, if any of the rockets are like split in half or anything you could have little captions talking about each part.
