Tin-foil Boat

WALT: Create a Tinfoil boat to float and hold the most amount of plastic cubes

For our Year 6 Tech, we created Tin-foil boats, Our goal was to make them be able to float and to hold the most amount of plastic cubes. As a result, our ship worked really well. When we put our boat in the sink it went well but sunk. We were able to fit 2 cubes inside.  The winner was able to fit 138 blocks inside their boat.

We found it challenging to Build/Construct our boat to make it float.
We found it fun/funny that it could hold 2 blocks as we thought it would just tip and sink.

We really liked this technology experiment for "Forces and Motion" and think you should try it for yourself.
