MAKING AN ELECTRIC AIRPLANE WITH A SIMPLE ELECTRIC CIRCUIT AND CARDBOARD.

The students from 4th grade studied how to create a simple circuit. Then, they learned how to make a serial and a parallel circuit using batteries, wires, a switch, a small fan, and cardboard. When they learned the whole process they started to make an electric airplane using recyclable materials
