Coding and flying drones what a match! Students will have the chance to experiment with flying a drone in a simulator. The lesson includes 4 missions incorporating forces of flight acting on a drone.
Grades:
5th Grade, 6th Grade
Students build a Tetrahedral kite while learning about problem solving, patience and diligence to finish a task. They will also be able to explain lift and force and apply the steps of the engineering
