Float Your Boat!

  1. We tried to discover what design would hold the most pennies.
  2. If we had more air pockets at the bottom of the boat, then they boat would have more buoyancy, letting us hold more pennies because more air pockets translates to more buoyancy.
  3. Our boat held 57 pennies.
  4. We created an air pocket at the bottom of the boat in an attempt to give the boat more buoyancy.
  5. I would ditch the straws and popsicle sticks at the bottom of the boat.
