Forces, Flight, and Learning with UAVs Lesson 3 of 4
This lesson is lesson 3 of 4 so it is designed to be used in conjunction with the two previous lessons. The students will continue using their newly acquired drone flying skills with both DroneBlocks (flying with the keys on a chrome book) as well as flying with a Game Sir controller if one is available. This lesson moves beyond the basics of take off and landing towards learning to fly the drone in a specific manner while mastering maneuvering skills that all drone pilots should have. Students will watch videos perhaps stopping after viewing a skill. Then they can go and complete the skill with a third student evaluating the maneuvers to assess whether the pilot completed the skill successfully. Finally there are suggestions for remedial work as enrichment activities for the students who finish early.

Students will explore how gravity plays a role in orbits and the attraction between objects in space, using online simulations. In addition to the online simulations this lesson contains ideas for
The Parachute design lesson involves students learning about the engineering design process, air resistance, and parachute principles before planning and constructing their own parachutes. Through
Students will create a Google slideshow presentation to document their progress through the engineering design process, which includes: researching the science of sound, then creating an instrument
