In this quick activity, students think, pair, and share their thoughts on the forces that affect an airplane. Introduction In this quick activity, students think, pair, and share their thoughts on ...
8. Human Airplanes
In this game, the students are the aircrafts, subject to the four forces of flight. Introduction Airplanes are complex machines. Despite their size and thousands of parts, they only need 4 forces ...
9. Running is a Drag
... in the amount of drag between walking and running, make the analogy of wading through water – what keeps them from running faster in water? The water resistance, also a type of drag. An airplane has drag ...
10. Drag Is... Slow
In this activity, students compare the flight of a flat sheet of paper to that of a paper airplane. The streamlined paper airplane slips smoothly through the air since its shape produces little drag. A ...
11. Paper Plane Flying Contest
In this activity, students design and compare different kinds of paper airplanes to determine which results in aerodynamic flight.  Introduction What makes a paper airplane fly? Air. How easily ...
12. Magnificent Flying Machine
... pressure. The relative high pressure below the airfoil pushes up the wing, creating lift. By changing the shape of the airfoil slightly, a pilot can adjust the amount of lift on each wing. On an airplane, ...
