Product Information

Before she became a pilot, she become a nurse’s aide taking care of wounded soldiers in World War I. Whether it be in the successes or learning through failures, engineering projects push kids to expand their horizons, experiment,problem-solve, and embrace failure as a means to success. I gave some tips above for making this a science experiment, but I wanted to add a few more details. You can easily make it a science experiment by testing different sizes of paper planes, different thicknesses of rubber bands, or different lengths for the launcher. Like other areas of STEM, engineering is all about solving problems and figuring out why things do what they do.

You can also experiment with the trajectory of the launch to observe how that changes the distance the plane travels. However, what you can do is provide learning opportunities to get your kids started with the engineering process of planning, designing, building and reflecting. Be inspired by famous aviator Amelia Earhart and design your own paper plane launcher at home or in the classroom.This file folder paper airplane launcher propels the plane forward with the tension of a rubber band.

Our easy wooden paper airplane launcher has more power, so if you’re going for maximum distance, you’ll want to check that one out. Then she studied to become a mechanic, but soon was back in school studying for a career in medicine. Because of the unpredictable nature of a paper airplane (sometimes they zoom straight, and sometimes they veer to one side), I would perform each test at least 5 times and average the results.

She set many other records, wrote best-selling books about her flying experiences, and was instrumental in the formation of The Ninety-Nines, an organization for female pilots. Engineering is all about designing and building machines, structures, and other items, including bridges, tunnels, roads, vehicles etc.
