Paper Helicopters

Charlotte K had the WOW Folder and today she taught us to make paper helicopters which work just like a sycamore seed.

She taught us how to cut the paper that her Dad helped her prepare and then pick a little bit of blutack on it to put some weight in the bottom.

We had lots of fun experimenting with them and working out how to get them to spin really well. It was a 'Health and Safety' nightmare but we kept safe following the rules. Some people used different throwing techniques, held the helicopters differently or used a throw and blow method. Two people made a game with points for different spins and how the helicopters landed.




It was really fun and really WOW, thanks to Charlotte and her Dad.
