FLIGHT
Aim: To learn about flight and aerodynamics.
- In your groups of 3, you will make a paper plane and measure its distance and behaviour.
- In groups of 3, you will make a water rocket and record its distance and behaviour.
Aerodynamic is a thing that moves in the air.
A solid object that which air flows around.
4 forces of flight:
- Gravity
- Thrust
- Lift
- Drag
Paper Plane:
Material:
1. Paper
2.ruler
Steps:
1. fold in half long side
2. make the wings
3. cut ailerons
Findings:
Conclusion:
We learnt how to make a different paper plane. We found out what Aerodynamics is and the 4 forces of flight. We also found out that the difference makes when we put the paper clip and the ailerons.Material:
1. Paper
2.ruler
Steps:
1. fold in half long side
2. make the wings
3. cut ailerons
Findings:
Plane Type
|
Distance
|
Behaviour
|
Normal
| 4.6 M | straight then curved at the end |
Ailerons
| 2.1 M | curved |
| Paper clip | 5 M | straight line |
Conclusion:
The different tests that we did are paper plane without the ailerons and the paperclip, paper plane with the ailerons and lastly paper plane with paper clip.

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
3. Something thoughtful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
