Put the word "Failure" on the board or make the beginning
of a bulletin board with the word at the top.
|
 |
Brainstorm in small groups or with the whole group. How do
students feel when they fail? Is failure ever good? How is
failure good. Do other people fail? What can you do if you
fail? How can you correct your mistakes? How did the people
we study in the history of flight correct their mistakes?
|

 |
Bring out the highlights of the story of a person failing.
Draw or write about their failures and what they did to
correct mistakes and to eventually be successful. Were there
some people who were never successful, but lead the pathway
for future successes by other people?
|
 |
Present the project to the class. Display projects on the
bulletin board marked "failure." Discuss how many failures
there were compared to one success. Make a graph of failure
compared to successes throughout the history of flight.
