Specifications

In this unit from the award-winning IMSA Fusion STEM program, students will gain an understanding of the conditions that are necessary for an aircraft weighing more than 1.2 million pounds to get off the ground. Moving through activity stations, students use various materials to investigate the variables that are important for lift, with special emphasis being placed on the shape of an airfoil, angle of attack and airspeed. Then students design and test an airplane’s wing using an online computer simulation inspired by the Wright Brothers.

Includes materials for 30 students, writable student content and access to detailed digital teacher content with professional development videos (1-year license). Grades 6–8.
