Science
- The 5-6 year old student has learned about the four forces of flight: lift, weight, thrust, and drag.
- Through the activity, they gained an understanding of how the forces of flight affect the movement and stability of objects like airplanes and birds.
- They have developed observation and critical thinking skills by exploring the concept of flight and its underlying principles.
For continued development, encourage the students to create their own paper airplanes or conduct simple experiments to further understand the forces of flight. Additionally, introducing toys or models related to flight can help reinforce their learning in a fun and interactive way.
