Rang 4 - Science

We enjoy learning about how things work. We also like to design and make things. We decided to design and make a raft. We gathered our thoughts about what materials would sink or float. We thought about materials, easily available to us that we could use to make our raft. We drew a plan of what our raft would look like. After getting our materials together we made our rafts. We tested them, discussed what worked well and then we decided which rafts floated the best. We had great fun!
