Strawplanes

Supplies:
1 of each strip long and short for each student
1 straw for each student
scissors
tape

Here's a pretty cool variation on the old paper airplane.

Copy enough of pages 1 and 2 for the entire class. Use card stock or other heavy paper.

Cut out the strips so that the black lines just show.
Make a circle with each strip and tape it on the inside and outside of the circle

Now you have a large circle and a small circle.

Tape the straw to the inside of the circles placing the small circle at one end and the large circle at the other end.

And you’re done!

Now is the fun part! Fly it just like you would a paper airplane but be amazed by how much better it flies!
