We worked together to explore, investigate, observe and test out our ideas. We tried to make the floating objects sink and the sinking objects float! We sank a floating boat by weighing it down with heavy stones. We pushed the floating saucer down and filled it with water to sink it! We had so much fun and there was lots of creative thinking happening! Flying like eagles class one!
