Class Experience

In this class, students will be taught how to make paper airplanes that they can fly.  Students will have a close up look to view my hands and paper with a dedicated camera so they can clearly see each step of the folding process and easily copy each step. Students will be given plenty of time for each step so no one is left being. By the end of class students will have a usable paper airplanes to take flight. We will very briefly discuss the science behind what forces allow paper airplanes to take flight. If time allows I will show students how to fold a second paper airplane so have a second piece of paper in case we have time. 

Please see Learner Supply List section and have supplies ready at the start of class.

This will be an introductory class so no prior experience is needed.

Learning Goals

This course teaches students to follow visual instructions as wells as exercises their fine motor skills. Students will also developed a basic knowledge of forces in action.

Other Details

Supply List
Students will need a piece of 8.5 by 11 pieces of paper. Having a few extra piece of paper may be beneficial in case of a rip or other damage to paper during folding. Printer/copier paper or construction paper is ideal. But notebook paper will work if other options are not available but will not fly as well. Students will also need a flat surface in front of their camera to work on their airplan.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
