Grades 6-8/Tier B/
Answer
The students used a ruler to measure the length and width of the paper they used for the paper airplane experiment. They also used a stopwatch to measure the time it took for the paper airplanes to fly. They also used a measuring tape to measure the distance the paper airplanes flew. The students also used a balance to measure the weight of the paper they used. They also used a protractor to measure the angle of the wings of the paper airplanes. The students also used a wind tunnel to measure the air resistance of the paper airplanes. Finally, the students used a data chart to record the results of their experiment. The students compared the results of their experiment to decide which paper was the best for making paper airplanes. They looked at the length and width of the paper, the time it took for the paper airplanes to fly, the distance the paper airplanes flew, the weight of the paper, the angle of the wings, and the air resistance of the paper airplanes. Based on these results, the students determined which paper was the best for making paper airplanes.
