## Overview

The Parachute Model DIY Science Kit empowers young learners to explore the principles of air resistance and fluid dynamics through hands-on experimentation. With simple materials and a comprehensive guide, this kit not only aligns with educational curricula but also fosters creativity and critical thinking. Join a community of like-minded explorers for additional resources and support!

## Description

Whether it’s how seeds disperse and land slowly on the ground, or whether it is how the air force drops consignments of food and aid in regions devastated by natural calamities, or whether it’s how a jelly fish swims; both natural and man-made creations take full advantage of air resistance and drag for their benefit. By creating an “umbrella” that’s light and has a large surface area, one can use any fluid to control one’s motion through that fluid. Here, we make parachutes out of plastic sheets to observe how air resistance can temper the force of gravity to allow objects to fall gently to the ground. Bonus: Flick Knife: Make a switch knife using three ice cream sticks and two rubber bands. Make notches on the sticks so that the rubber bands don't slip. ThinkTac TACtivities use simple and accessible materials to develop scientific temper by observing physical realities, testing, hypothesising, questioning and analysing. Variations are designed to encourage tinkering, creating opportunities to apply logic, problem solve and think critically and creatively. All TACtivities are linked to the curriculum and help understand underlying science concepts, assisted by topic guides and videos. Our App provides access to step-by-step videos, interactive simulations, variation videos, topic guides, topic videos and exploration games for most TACtivities.

## Features

- Make a parachute using a waste plastic sheet and strings. Using plastic sheets of different sizes to make a parachute, you can show how the area of a surface affects air drag/resistance and how various objects in nature use this principle to their benefit.
- The kit contains simple, unprocessed materials (ring magnet, parachute material, thread, binding wire, safety pin, cardboard) and a step-by-step guide for Hands-on learning.
- Login to our forums for videos, variations, support and mentoring on further exploration.
- Designed to reinforce science concepts while honing creative, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Curriculum alignment – CBSE VIII (Fluid Friction) ICSE VI (Habitat)
- Also included in the pack - bonus TACtivity – Flick Knife.
