Students who browse our website can learn a lot about roller coasters. They can learn about the origin of roller coasters and how they have changed over the years by visiting our history page. The history page also tells students about new roller coasters coming to theme parks in the next year. Students can learn about the laws of physics and how roller coasters work on our physical page. The roller coaster accidents page tells about different kinds of roller coaster accidents that have really happened. We think kids will learn from this what they should and should not do when riding on roller coasters. Our pictures page gives students a look at the structure or framing of different roller coasters in the United States. The roller coaster records page gives the browser a look at which coasters hold the current records for speed, height, number of inversions, and longest drop.
