Yesterday we engaged in the science experiment. We've started by brainstorming the science behind flying. One of the students played the role of Ikarus, who wanted to fly like a bird. After a pretend crash we looked at some airplane prototypes by Leonardo Davinci. The children were very excited when our student teacher, Miss Lee, announced that they were to make a propeller. With the help of YouTube, the children persevered with their paper machines. Soon, they discovered that the height from which the propeller was dropped affected the quality of the spin. When we took our experimenting outside to a higher ground, we also observed the effects of the wind. The children asked us to email their parents the link for this experiment they loved so much.
