How To Make 5 EASY Paper Airplanes that FLY FAR | PPO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpYS5WtvNvQ

Investigate:

Which paper airplane can fly the furthest?

Which plane went the fastest?

What if we make a smaller or bigger plane?

What if we try making the plane out of a different type of paper e.g newspaper?

If we fly the same plane 3 times will it travel the same distance each time?

If you would like to send a photograph or a picture of your investigation to the teachers@wellandps.org.uk email address then we can put them on our class web page. You could label your picture and write a sentence about what you did if you want.
