This morning P4-7 , armed with snacks and carboard headed over to Kirkcolm for a morning of flight with Visible Fictions’ “The Impossible” Project!✈️
Over the course of the term the boys and girls have been learning about the 4 forces of flight, famous aeronauts from the past and what exactly is in a flight deck of a plane!? They put this knowledge to work by creating their very own flight decks to take part in the audio drama, this gave them a space to experience the story from which helped to immerse them in the experience.
When we arrived, we teamed up with Kirkcolm’s upper class for a game of ‘Guess What’s in the Box’. The three volunteers used adjectives to describe the textures of the unknown objects and using their clues, we identified a pilot’s hat, a yellow plane and a globe which led us to think about famous pilot Amelia Earheart and her plane, ‘the Canary.’👩✈️ Afterwards, we wired up our headsets, and immersed ourself in our cardboard flight decks and enjoyed an audio drama of a plane journey and crash!
We had a fantastic morning learning about the history of flight and having fun with our Kirkcolm friends! 👩✈️ 👨✈️
