ACTIVITY: Make the world's smallest boomerang

Use a blank index card to make the world’s SMALLEST boomerang!

I give every student 1 index card and a pair of scissors and challenge him/her to make the world’s smallest boomerang!

I also give them these instructions/guidelines:

. Cut out a 1” square from one of the file cards

. Draw and cut out a small boomerang

. Use the remaining card as the launching platform.

Balance the boomerang on the edge and flick with your finger.

And the challenge?

Can you get the boomerang to return and land on the launching pad?
