As part of our World Around Us Topic on Flight, Mr Ian Patterson visited Year 7M. Mr Patterson should the class a selection of his birds, ranging from owls to falcons. He showed us how they fly and land. As well as this he told us about food chains, habitats and how the hunt. It was a very exciting morning where everyone who wanted to got to handle birds got a chance to do so.
We looked at the four forces a plane needs to fly.
1. Weight
2. Thrust/ propulsion
3. Drag
4.lift
We then put what we had been shown and researched into practice.
