What keeps airplanes in the air? – Your ideas

Hi everyone,

Airplanes are very heavy. Many people fit inside them and are transported at the same time.

So what keeps airplanes in the air, even though they are so heavy? Do you have any ideas yet?

I’m excited to see what you come up with!

Does your airplane model fly?

So, how did building the airplane work out for you?

And what kind of material did you use? Did it fly as badly for you as it did for me? Do you perhaps already have an idea what could be the reason???

I look forward to your observations and ideas.

Soil between the fingers

Kniffelix Fingerprobentest

Hello everyone!

So, what did you find out from the finger test?

How did the soil feel in your hands?

Was it rough and gritty like sand,
powdery like loam,
or smooth and sticky like clay?

Were you able to shape the soil well, or did it just trickle through your fingers?

What type of soil was your sample? From what location did you take the sample? Write me your test results in the comments. You can also upload a photo of your soil location.

Ugly greenery or beautiful plant?

Plant seedling in hand

Hello dear ones,

I don’t know either, I somehow don’t have a knack for greenery 🙁 My plants at home often die. In the meantime, I have a lot of artificial flowers in my apartment, so luckily not much can go wrong…

Can’t you really get along with plants either? Or does everything grow and thrive with you? Are you plant lovers with a green thumb? Do you have a favorite flower or tips for me?

Tell me in the comments 🙂

Dancing cornstarch

Did you enjoy investigating the cornstarch? We’ll show you how to make your cornstarch mixture dance:

Do you also want to make your cornstarch dance? Then let’s go! For the experiment you need:

When force is applied to the cornstarch, for example, when you hit it with a spoon, it becomes solid. But what happens when you play sounds to it? At what pitch does it really start to dance? Does it prefer low or high tones?

Write your observations in the comments. Can you explain the cornstarch’s preference?

What have your investigations revealed?

Ketchup and cornstarch-water mixture

Did you process the ketchup and the cornstarch-water mixture properly? 😉

I’m excited 🙂

Ketchup must go on it!

Toast with Ketchup Face

Hello dear ones,

when I order a portion of fries, ketchup is a must 😉 Do you also have a dish you can’t do without ketchup?

Sandwich, pasta or bratwurst?

Or are you more of a mustard or mayonnaise person?
Write to me in the comments what your stomach desires 😉
