Paper Helicopter Activity - Air Resistance, Freefall - Physics
This is my version of the paper helicopters you can find in paper airplane books. I love making these sorts of things. My question was, how can I turn this into an inquiry based activity?
Students make five sizes of paper helicopters, collect the fall time and approximate spin rate and make two graphs to determine the effect of helicopter length on fall time. If you have access to a strobe light, you might even try measuring the spin rate!
You can use these for many levels of students and in

Scaled Solar System Activity: Relative Distances and Sizes of the Planets
For this Scaled Solar System activity, students will work in groups to create a scaled model of the solar system by measuring (and calculating in the case of the more challenging version of this activity) the specific distance to place each "planet" from the "sun". This will help your students understand the relative distances and sizes of the planets while satisfying the visual and kinesthetic learning styles of your middle school students! It also perfectly aligns to the NGSS Standard MS-ESS1-

Importance of learning math skills
It's no secret that mathematics is one of the foundational subjects that students need to learn. Math forms the basis for so many other subjects — like science, engineering, and technology — and because of that, it's essential that students develop strong math skills starting from a very young age.
Benefits of learning math
Learning math has many benefits. It helps students:
- Begin to develop problem-solving, logical reasoning, and critical-thinking skills
- Grow their understanding of numbers and basic operations
- Understand how math is used in real-life situations
By ensuring that students have a solid foundation, teachers can help set them up for future success.
