Ash Class - Investigating Materials

In Ash class we have been learning the names and properties of materials.    
 
Ahoy there sailor! We have been finding out about materials in science this term, so to apply our skills we had to build a boat which could float.  To show our mastery in this area we had to build a boat.
 
We had to choose appropriate materials and think carefully about its shape.  We also applied our maths skills by timing how long each boat stayed afloat so we could work out which boat was the most successful. 
 
Ally and Luke made the most successful boat with its waterproof materials and simple shape.  We all had fun making and testing them.
