When I was a newly qualified teacher in the early 1980’s the latest trend in maths teaching was Logo. We used to get the students programming the BBC computers to make amazing patterns and shapes. We even used to have a little turtle robot that you could program to draw shapes on the floor! You can have a go at Logo here thanks to Transum.

Here is a great website to learn how to make paper planes.
Why not organise a competition to see which type of plane flies the furthest? Collect data on the flight distances and work out the average distance flown. Does it make any difference if you use mean, median or mode? Work out the range in flight distances. What does this tell you? Which sort of plane is the best?
