Here are some of the designs a fourth-grader team designed and built over the course of the Tech Challenge 2016.
 |
| A team member got this glider idea from the Maker magazine. It was a good start to learn about gliders and center of gravity. |
 |
| Comparing the flight of our bird gliders to the store-bought balsa wood gliders. |
 |
| We got the idea from one of the library books a team member borrowed from the library. This glider is made out of foam plates. |
 |
| The same design different material. Foam gliders flew better than the paper plate gliders. |
The goal for our team is to research (online, library, books, magazines, etc.) and learn about the subject matter as much as possible. We also watch a lot of youtube videos, too.
Try some of these with your kids today.
