Class Activity : Making Paper Planes

Class Activity : Making Paper Planes

All companies (groups) are given about 10 sheets of papers and we are instructed to make paper planes.

There are no fixed type, shapes, or size for the paper plane as long as no added tool/ item being attached onto the plane. 

Among all paper planes beng build, a group should come out with one best paper plane that can travel the furthest. 

Each group will compete with other group and the distance of the flying planes are recorded. 

 

 

 

There are some basic rules applied for example, all plane should board from within marked area and if the flyer move beyond the marked line, the group should fly the plane again. Only three attempts are allowed. 

Lesson learned : We must make sure that we make/sell the best product since customers are looking for quality. A quality product will last longer and perform well, hence will increase profit for the business in long term.
