Junk n’ Sailors in P2

P2 have been exploring different materials and their properties. Such as plastic being waterproof.
As part of their learning they had to design and create a toy boat that would float.
They were given a wide range of junk materials to recycle into the toy boat. They had to problem solve to choose the most appropriate materials and design.

A couple of boats didn’t stay afloat so pupils revisited their designs to make modifications. In the end all boats stayed afloat and were able to move when the children blew on the sails.
