HOW FAR CAN MY PAPER AIRPLANE FLY? ✈️

Using painter’s tape and @postit notes, we created a giant number line which served as a launching pad for our homemade paper airplanes. ✈️ The children then took turns walking down the number line (reinforcing counting and one-to-one correspondence), and later launching their airplanes from a starting line to see which airplane design would make it the farthest. When we were done, we parked our planes at the “airport” (three cheers for dramatic play).

This was a bigger hit than any of us could have anticipated, and days later, they’re still flying their paper airplanes around. I love 💗 when these guys get excited about math and science. Proud science geek! 😋🙋🏻‍♀️
