Boats
As part of our construction theme the Daisy Class have been designing, creating and testing boats. After drawing a 2d picture of a boat they selected materials such as tin foil, modeling clay, paper and straws to create their own 3d boat. They worked hard to shape the tin foil to create the hull of the boat and used other materials to add details. The children were keen to float their boats in a basin of water and made predictions and observed whether they floated or sank. The children enjoyed blowing into the sails to try and get their boat to move across the water.
