- Title
Flying Machines.
- Authors
Morgan, Emily; Ansberry, Karen; Craig, Susan
- Abstract
The article presents two science experiments to engage U.S. elementary school students in engineering by having them design and test flying machines. The experiment was inspired by the children's books "Violet the Pilot" by Steve Breen and "Captain Arsenio: Inventions and (Mis)adventures in Flight" by Pablo Bernasconi. Topics discussed include a synopsis of each book, the materials needed for each experiment, and a section that connects the experiments with the Common Core State Standards.
