We've been experimenting with composition and multiple materials. |
Overlapping, line variation, texture effects and stenciling. |
Of course we are always preoccupied with flight! Constructing the perfect glider is always a favorite activity in the art room. |
This one flew about 40 feet! |

I'm interested in building one of these Do you have a pattern? My boys are forever making paper airplanes, this would be the perfect solution.
Hi, Do you have a pattern for these gliders? My boys love to build paper airplanes and they would love to make these

Ruth we do not have a pattern...but if you attach two long study strips of cardboard to the side of a cardboard triangle, one can attach paper to it with glue....add a paper tale or notch another triangle at the front so the flyer looks like a big dart, and you can create a large paper-cardboard glider....balance is key. Sometimes we add a weight to the front and then experiment with throwing the glider for optimal gliding experience : )
