Exploring Similar Materials And Creating New Objects


Students built their own boats using different materials such as foam and straws. To see if their boats would sink or float, the students decided to test them in a bin with some water. The students were very excited to observe that their boats could float!


We decided to build on the students' interest by using similar materials to yesterday's experiment. Using sponges of different shapes, straws and scissors, the children were challenged to make their own vehicles and structures. Students were very creative and made cars, bridges, boats and airplanes!
