The primary 1s were given the task to make a boat and see how much weight it would carry before sinking.

First they made their boats out of tin foil. Next they went outside to the water tray that Mrs Miller had filled up for them. Afterwards the p1s got 24 coins and 200g. Once they had everything they needed they placed the coins and weights onto the boat. Overtime they kept adding more. In the end Alma’s first boat sank with 3 coins and her second boat with 160g. Marlon’s first boat sank with 24 coins and his second with 200g. Therefor Marlon had won.

They found out that the reason why Marlon’s boat was the best because his was flat at the bottom and had no holes.
