Here is a class of Air Racers.  |
 This is a great project that allows students to work on their drafting, designing and construction skills. Records: 2007-2008 = 112' 2008-2009 = 113' 2009-2010 = 101' 2010-2011 = 115' 2011-2012 = 102' 2012-2013 = 114' 2013-2014 Could be you! Are you up for the challenge of being this year's champ? |
 Class Procedure- Students draw the layout of the air racer. Once all parts have been drawn, students cut the parts out. Next, students design their air racer. Lab Procedure- Students use the box and pan break to fold their parts. The air racer is assembled using hot glue. The brad is then attached to launch the air racer. Purpose- This is a great project that helps develop measuring skills as well as drafting skills. Accuracy is crucial for this project to work correctly.
