Taking the Leap

You're standing at the door of the plane, parachute strapped to your back. The wind whips at your face. One. Two. Three. JUMP! Imagine you are performing a skydive. What does it feel like? What can you see? Do you like it? Are you scared? Describe your acceleration as you take the plunge. What happens with air resistance? When you make it safely back on the ground, write down your skydiving experiences in your journal.
