They are encouraged to practise communication and reasoning skills as they discover how mathematics is used in a variety of flight-related careers. Graphics, photos, sound effects and animation, in an interactive design, encourage understanding. Student-selected problems reinforce and extend learning.
Teachers can track student progress and access their writing responses.
Blackline masters for activity cards, related information, and paper plane models are included. Students must work through lower levels before moving to higher levels.
