In the morning, students completed a boat research project, where they learned all about the parts of boats, types of boats, ways to make them move, and boat shapes.
After recess, students rotated through 4 experiments in each of the Grade 2 classrooms: Clay Boat experiment, Sailboat Demo/ Experiment, Jet Boat Demo, Paddle Boat Demo
Then in the afternoon, it was time to put all of this knowledge to the test. Students designed and created a boat that they felt would float, propel and carry a load. Then we tested the boats. EEKS! We realized that some modifications were needed, so students went back to work on their boats and tested them again! Congratulations, 2C Fishermen, on a job well done!
