Who doesn\u2019t love creating something that can soar across the room? These Paper Loop Gliders are fun to play with, easy to make, and great for experimenting with design!<\/p>\n

You will need:
\n-drinking straw
\n-paper
\n-scissors<\/p>\n

\"Paper<\/a><\/p>\n

First, cut two paper strips, about 1\u201d wide, along the 11\u201d side of a piece of paper. Set one strip aside, but cut the other strip to a length of 5.5.\u201d<\/p>\n

Make a loop out of one strip of paper and tape the ends together. Repeat with second strip.<\/p>\n

Place a straw so that the ends are aligned with the two taped parts of the loops and securely tape the straw to the interior of each loop there.<\/p>\n

\"Paper<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Paper<\/a><\/p>\n

Now you\u2019re ready to take flight! Launch the glider with a gentle, flat throw, with the large loop in the back. How far can you make your glider soar?\u00a0 Share your glider on our Facebook Page<\/a> with your flight results!<\/p>\n

Experiment:
\nDoes your glider fly differently when you change the position of the loops? What about if you change the size of the loops or the weight of the paper? Challenge yourself to design different gliders and see which one flies the farthest!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
