Paper Airplane Extravaganza

Last week, 5th grade GATE worked as aerospace engineers. They were challenged to create a paper airplane that would go the farthest distance. They looked at all types of building designs and then built the paper airplane that best suited their idea. They found that this was a bit challenging. Some had to test drive a few planes before heading out to the landing strip. :) They had a lot of fun. Drew Shankles' paper airplane went the farthest distance, traveling 45 feet and 5 inches. His plane was called "The Moth."




This was our measurement crew, they worked so hard getting the exact measurements of each flight.
