About This Project
A super cool paper airplane that flies far and fast!
Steps
Make the first fold
Fold your paper in half the long way. Open it back up. You've made a line down the middle!
Make the nose
Fold the top corners down to meet the middle line. It should look like a house roof now!
Bring the corner to the center line
Grab one corner where the "roof" meets the "house" and fold it to meet the center line.
Repeat on the other side
Fold the point down
Fold the point down to meet the bottom edge of the paper.
Flip your project over
Flip it over. You should have a trapezoid with a fold down the middle.
Fold in the corners
Fold the upper corners of your trapezoid to meet the center line.
Flip it over
Fold the point up
Fold the point up. This makes the general shape of the jet!
Make the wings
To make the wings, first, fold your jet in half.
Fold down one wing
Carefully fold down the top half of one side of your jet to make a wing.
Repeat on the other side
Flip it over, and fold the other side down. Now you're ready to take flight! How fast will your jet fly?
