This is a resource for educators detailing student learning programs that explore aeronautics, encouraging them to examine the nature of flight and to experience some real-life applications of mathematics, science and technology. The activities are divided into three chapters: Air, Flight and We Can Fly, You and I. Step-by-step instructions (and associated graphics) help the educator guide students through the activity in the classroom, and interdisciplinary activities are also suggested. The study of flight and the operation of aircraft is explored through the construction of a range of model gliders.
