Pasco Wish List


 Something to go on my wish list for this year is a good-quality linear air track from @Pascoscientific. When I have used one before, they haven't been too good. My only problem is finding a very quiet air pump in the UK

Zip line expt


 Just did the coolest experiment with @pascoscientific tension protractors! Used them to calculate angles for a zip line, then measured distances and forces by sliding down a weight. So much fun! #STEMeducation #physicsrocks
