Airplanes

This lesson plan focuses on the following standards : HS.P3U2.7 Use mathematics and computational thinking to explain how Newton’s laws are used in engineering and technologies to create products to

In this engaging lesson, students explore the forces of flight and use the Engineering Design Process to improve the flight times and distance traveled with a paper airplane. Resources are included

Students learn how to identify the 3 axes an aircraft uses while in flight in this lesson. They learn key vocabulary and construct a model airplane to develop further understanding of flight!

Students will use the engineering design process to design, build, and test three different paper airplane designs. The goal will be to create one that can fly the fastest, one that can fly the
