Aerodynamics and Planes
In the Kindergarten aerodynamics lesson, young learners embark on an imaginative journey into the world of flight. Through a captivating exploration of flying objects like kites, birds, and paper airplanes, students engage with basic aerodynamics concepts in a way that captures their curiosity and creativity. Aligned with STEM Arizona State Standards, this lesson not only introduces students to the wonders of flight but also encourages them to observe, ask questions, and make connections between science and their daily experiences. With hands-on activities, like crafting their own paper plate airplanes, Kindergartners take their first steps toward understanding the magic of aerodynamics, all while having fun and fostering a love for learning.

Students will brainstorm, and make predictions of why an airplane can fly. The teacher will present the knowledge of aerodynamics to the students using video , and giving them opportunity to process
Students will create an inclined plane using Pythagorean Theorem and will experiment with rolling objects and try to find a solution to reduce the speed through friction, or air resistance or weight.
The students design and test a catapult using simple materials like popsicle sticks and rubber bands. They learn about the history of catapults and also about the physical science concepts related to
