Planning Reflection
I have a few ideas around my main idea, which is, how airplanes fly. One my ideas is finding out how an airplane actually takes off. Another idea i have is researching why planes fly so high in the atmosphere, as well as, how fast airplanes need to go to stay up. The angle of wings on an airplane would be something important to know too. I feel optimistic about this topic and think that i will learn lots.
Research Reflection
My research has been going well so far. I have been learning a lot about how planes work and the forces affecting them. The four main aerodynamic forces that affect a plane has taken up a large amount of my research and will probably be my main focus. There is a lot of information on this topic so it is easy to find what i need. I still need to research some of my other questions in order to find out my focus.
Focus Reflection
My main idea, finding out how airplanes fly, is already my focus for this project. I don't think i can really narrow it down any more, other than researching just one aspect of an airplane. There wouldn't be enough information for a whole project on just that. How airplanes fly is already a narrow enough topic in my opinion and a good concept for my final project. I have left out some of my questions though to focus more on others, but my main question is still the same. How do airplanes fly?
Creating Reflection
I have enough information now and am creating my final project. My project will be a "Prezi" which is a good way of representing my research and will be easy to follow. I like organizing my thoughts this way because it is neat and organized. Half of my project is on the four aerodynamic forces, and the other half is on some of my other questions. I think my information is spread out nice and will explain my main topic well.
