The grade 3's and 4's spent the afternoon applying their knowledge of floating and sinking to making boats that were to hold the maximum numbers of pennies.
After the first try, our students went back to the drawing board to see if they could improve their designs.
One boat even held 58 pennies!
These kids sure do know about buoyancy and displacement!
