You will need a cylinder shape object for the frame of your rocket also get Popsicle sticks, hot glue gun, duck tape, baking soda, vinegar, and a normal water bottle ,with a large bottle

Step One

Start to make the body including wings like shown in the picture. You will need to make 4 wings for each side. Now cut around the top of your small bottle. Glue it to the top of your cylinder object

Paper Outside

After all the wings are in place make glue or tape paper on the wing frame on all sides now instead of duck tape in the middle try to use tin foil so it gives it a better look if u want

Since it uses pressure for launch you will need to cut the top of ur big bottle and keep the cap and the part where the cap it secured

Glue It

Now it's taking shape but your not done u need to make fuel but your rocket should start taking place

Fuel

For fuel u will use vinegar and baking soda first pour in baking soda to the hollow tube then but don't put any vinegar just yet

Fun

Now take it out side and get ready to launch but before leaving your bottle put on the cap and run but the last step is to have fun if u can lol xD just launch it
