Investigations in Science and Technology Lessons

PUSH and PULL is the topic of investigation in Year 2. Today the students thought about how fast a paper helicopter could fall to the ground. The investigation involved the wings and their length. The students had a lot of fun discussing and investigating the amount of air that was pushing the wings up to determine the time that the helicopter took to land.
