Pirate Science

Lesson: Science

Class: Year 4R Year: 2016 - 2017

The Shipwrecked Pirate left us some boats to make. We had to attach the flag to the mast and the mast to the boat. This had to be done very carefully so that the boat didn't tip up when it entered the water.When the boasts were complete we had races using "wind power," or blowing. We discussed why certain boats might win. We also discussed whether the size of the mouth affected how much wind there was! We had lotsof fun whilst we learned some important things about forces.
