How Far Will It Fly?

 Continuing on our paper airplane construction yesterday, the kids were anxious to get them back in their hands and have them sail through the wind tunnel! They each picked out their planes from yesterday since most of them either wrote their names or made a particular mark so they knew it was theirs. 

L asked if we could use the meter stick in order to help get some of the planes that were getting stuck out. A good solution, but today not many of the planes were getting stuck so it wasn't serving that purpose anymore. They did notice though that there were numbers. 

"Why are there numbers?"

Ms. Margie quickly explained that we can use it to measure. This gave them an idea!

For the next 10 minutes or so the kids would take turns putting the planes into the tunnel, seeing where it landed, and then reading off the numbers it landed by. It was such a fun way for them to stay engaged and make a little more purpose of out the wind tunnel play.

 Today was “the most amazing day” according to one friend! Thanks to PAT for leaving the glow party up for us! We also started working on a project that combines letters and numbers, it’s called a graph.
