Learning Objectives
Understand Basic Aerodynamics
Explore how the design of a paper airplane (shape, folds, and weight) impacts flight distance, speed, and stability.
Introduce the Concept of Variables
Compare how changing one factor (e.g., adding a paper clip or adjusting wing size) affects performance.
Activity:
Students will create paper airplanes out of different materials to see whose can travel the farthest. What would happen if you fold the wings once more or add a bit of weight?
