1. STEM FAIR PROJECT FARTHEST FLYING PAPER AIRPLANE JEREMIAH FULLER| MRS. WILSON| NORTHVIEW ELEMENTARY

2. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM My question is which paper airplane can fly the farthest?

3. PROJECT OVERVIEW My stem project is about paper airplanes. I wanted to find out which airplane can fly the farthest. I went in my paper airplane book and research on paper airplanes. I picked three paper airplanes from the book and there names was the Long-Distance Glider, Avro Canada CF-105 and the Super Tiger Moth.

4. RESEARCH Summary :  Mostly the best paper airplanes came from Japan.  Some paper airplanes have three pieces of paper to make the whole thing.  Paper airplanes must not only look good but must be able to do long glides, great loops, or barrel rolls, and all kinds of other stunts.

5. VARIABLES Independent Variable - What changed on purpose is the type of airplane. Dependent Variable - I hope the distance would go farther than before. Controlled Variable - The way the paper airplane was made.

6. HYPOTHESIS My prediction was that I thought the long distance glider can fly the farthest because the way it was made.

7. MATERIALS 8 ½ x 11 inch paper Stapler Staples Tape Measure

8. PROCEDURE 1.Get materials together. 2.Make airplanes. 3.Throw airplanes. 4.Measure how far the planes were. 5.Record the results. 6.Repeat 3 times.

9. DATA/OBSERVATIONS Plane TypeThrow 1Throw 2Throw 3Average Long Distance Glider 10 feet12 feet13 feet11.7 feet Avro-Canada CF-105 14 feet17 feet24 feet18.3 feet Super Tiger Moth 16 feet20 feet12 feet16 feet

10. CONCLUSION My prediction was wrong because the airplane that I thought would be the farthest was the shortest. The data says that the Avro Canada CF-105 flies the farthest.
