Flight Basics
Upon completion of this lesson, the student should know:
• The relationship between Bernoulli's Principle and Newton’s Laws of Motion and how they were used to develop a machine that could fly.
• The coefficient of lift and the parameters involved.
• The parts of an airplane and an airfoil.
• The four forces affecting an airplane in flight.
• The three axes, movement around those axes, and the control surfaces that create the motion.

This lesson plan is about structures that are balanced using tension forces. Students will create their own tensegrity structure that will withstand a predetermined amount of weight. Students will
Students will learn the history of rainsticks. They will engineer and design their rainstick. Students have to figure out how much rice, beans and corn goes inside to make the sound of rain. Finally
This is the first lesson in a series of four that are designed to help guide students to design and implement their own independent STEM research project.
