How do boats float?

This week we have been researching and conducting experiments to investigate how boats float!

We made tin foil boats and tested them by loading the boats with as many cubes possible before it sank. Well done to Amy, Mackenzie, Alice and Lynn as their boat managed to hold 202 cubes before sinking! We then discussed displacement, up-thrust and buoyancy.
