iLEAD Lancaster Launches 8th Grade Soaring Aeronautics Project: September 2

At iLEAD Lancaster, our 8th graders are participating in our Soaring Aeronautics Project, which launches on Tuesday, September 2! Through this project, learners discover the engineering design process and learn about aerodynamics. The history of flight, anatomy of birds, current experimental gliders, and meteorology are woven in to extend and enhance knowledge, giving meaning to research and writing.

On Tuesday, September 23, all iLEAD Lancaster learners will have a chance to interact with a full-scale glider on our campus and learn from glider pilots about flight controls. Families are welcome! See the flyer below for more information:

On Saturday, October 25, our 8th graders will have the opportunity to fly a real glider.

Finally, on Wednesday, October 29, our 8th graders will host a Presentation of Learning. Mark your calendar and get ready to learn so much about aeronautics from our learners that day!

Special thanks to iLEAD Student Aerospace Projects for their guidance with this exciting project!
