Student Activity Sheet: Propeller Motion
| Directions: |
In the novel Countdown to Flight! the author explains how
a propeller creates forward motion on an airplane. Create a diagram
or series of illustrations and describe in your own words how a propeller
creates forward movement. Use page 50 of the novel as one reference.
Try to find at least two other references (using other sources) that
explain how a propeller works. |
Include the following information in your diagram:
- Illustrations that show how the propeller creates forward motion for
an airplane (use as many as you need);
- Brief explanations to explain what is happening in each of your drawings;
- Labels on your diagrams.
After you do research, use the space below to create a rough draft of
what your drawings will look like.
