Target Grades:

K, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

We use aeronautics to teach math and science. An aeronautics event is available for all learners.

The event requires the integration of math and science concepts for the learner to make the necessary decisions to proceed through the event. The event is written at:

• Student Pilot level for grade K-4 learners

• Private Pilot level for grade 5-8 learners

• Ace Pilot level for grade 9-12 learners

We also feature:

• Open-ended Curriculum

This curriculum gives educators hands-on activities to teach the math and science concepts that are required in the aeronautics event. The lessons are easily adapted to the ages and developmental levels of the learners.

• An Event Tutorial

The tutorial informs educators and other learners about the basics of flight for the aircraft featured in the event.

• Event Aircraft Virtual Museum

• Teaching Strategies and Other Help Files
