Emily conducted an experiment launching a paper airplane 6 times under different conditions to observe the effects on distance traveled and time aloft. She predicted the plane would fly over 1 meter each time. Her observations found that folding the elevators down caused the plane to fly downward, while adding a paperclip to the nose did not significantly affect flight distance or time, which she attributed mostly to how hard she threw the plane.

4. S.L.O.FProcedure-I am going to launch my plane 4 times. 3 Times it will be altered.1st Throw it will not be altered. 2nd Throw I will put a paperclip on the nose.3rd Throw I will fold down the elevators(no paperclip). 4th Throw I will fold down the elevators & put a paperclip on the nose. 5th Throw I will fold up the elevators. 6th Throw I will fold the elevators up and put a paperclip on the nose.

5. Prediction-I predict my plane will fly more than 1 meter.
