5th & 6th Grade Scientists Designing and Constructing Boats

5th grade science students with teacher Nemanja Cetic recently observed and compared the buoyancy of different objects in water and dish soap. Now those students are designing, constructing, and evaluating a model cargo boat to determine its maximum load capacity. Nemanja's 6th grade scientists are constructing sailboats to investigate the concept of unprocessed energy, with the objective being to demonstrate how wind energy can be harnessed to propel a sailboat. Check out some photos of their efforts.
