Subject: Assignment for visit to Six Flags

I will admit that I am a middle school teacher and I don't have any specific
ideas but I did go to  http://ask.com  and searched for "Six Flags Great
Adventure" and found this page:

http://themeparks.about.com/travel/themeparks/library/weekly/
blffsfga.htm?iam=ask&terms=Six+Flags

Then I noticed on the left side of the page that there is a link to "Physics
of Rides" which is here:

http://themeparks.about.com/msub24.htm

and there are links to a variety of sites including this one from Glenbrook
South High School:

http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/projects/yep/coasters/rcstupa.html

I hope that helps you get some ideas for your 11th graders.
