SCIENCE PROCESS SKILLS

The pupils of 5 Zamrud are having a competition on designing paper
planes. Each pupil receives a coloured paper from the teacher. Let us look
at what they did a day before the competition.

Look at my paper plane, Melia.
Its nose cone is long and pointed.

Yes, Ana. Why did you design your paper
plane that way?
ANA
This shape can reduce the wind resistance.

Ana, it seems like our paper planes have different sizes.
The wings of my paper plane are bigger. Can you guess
why I made such a design?

Then, they discussed how their paper planes were folded.

Steps on how Ana folded her paper plane:
