Before the October holiday we went on a twig hunt around the playground. We managed to collect some sticks and twigs which we then made into miniature rafts. We worked with a partner or in a group of three to tie the twigs together and make a raft that would hopefully float in the classroom sink.
Some of us succeeded, others had rafts that tipped over and sank. As well as being a simple science experiment we also had to work together to design and create our rafts in the first place. We gathered the required materials then set to, trying to build our boats.
Have a look at some of our creations!
