Hannah Altes, left, 8, and Joey DiPascale, 7, hold a hula hoop target for their second grade classmates as they perform accuracy tests with foam rockets at Pelican Marsh Elementary School in Naples on Thursday, November 5, 2009. Angela Loerzel's second grade class learned concepts of gravity, thrust and friction through a homemade rocket made with plastic pipes and rubber bands. Students used the rockets outside to grasp the basics of physics and measurement - all made possible by an over $300 "Connect with the Classroom" grant from Suncoast Schools Federal Credit Union.
