Paper Airplane
This activity consists of a paper airplane competition which aims to develop fine motor skills in students by folding paper to make a balanced paper airplane.
The paper airplane that goes the farthest will be the winner of the competition, and the winners will receive a custom design made in digital fabrication as a prize.
As a guide students have 4 examples of paper airplanes of lesser and greater difficulty. A step-by-step guide has been created in book format for folding each part of the airplane.
Students can also create their own models for the final competition.
