Physical Science also appears in this movie various times. A few ways are that when the rocket finally worked that gave him a higher chance of being in the science fair at his local high school. That relates to physical science because physics moves the rocket. Also, during science class for Homer, he poured chemicals in the sink and a girl threw a flame into the sink, this caused a chemical reaction caused by physics and made a large flame. The last sign of physical science I found in the movie is when the coal fell on the man and unfortunately died. Physics caused the coal in the mine to fall upon the man's head.
How math is used in this movie is when Homer and his friends are trying to figure out what is needed to build a rocket. Another way is when Homer and his friends are trying to figure out where to launch the rocket. Lastly, when Homer tries to figure out where his last rocket landed to prove himself not guilty of causing a forest fire.
Character Ed was also used in this movie. Six ways they were used are :
- Homer wanted to build a rocket and he is eager to build it.
- Homer's dad is rude and mean to Homer because of his dream.
- Homer and his friends are cooperating.
- Homer & friends didn't want to get in trouble once again so they burned down the rocket house.
- Homer has to provide money and work in the mines so his family can keep his house, so Homer gives up his dream for the time and works in the mines.
- Homer's dad can get back to work and Homer can begin to work on teaching everybody about rockets.
These show how Homer showed Character ed in the movie October Sky.
