Year 4 Science: Exploring Forces Through Flight

paper_plane.jpg

This term, Year 4 students have been investigating forces, with a particular focus on gravity and aerodynamics. As part of their studies, they explored the principles that enable aircraft to fly, then designed and constructed a variety of paper plane models. The culminating challenge saw each student testing their design to determine which plane flew the furthest, bringing their theoretical learning to life through hands-on experimentation.
