Science Experiments

Science Week

For science week we made hovercrafts. We used paper plates and small piece of paper. We made them by cutting a hole in the middle of the plate and rolled the paper to fit inside the hole. To move them you had to blow into the funnel. We gave them names like speed star and raced them in heats and then the winner of each heat went to the semi-final. The two winners of the semi-final went on to the final. Mrs.Treacy gave a prize to the over all winner. Also for science week we made paper helicopters. We stood on our chairs and let them fall to the ground. We had great fun making and learning about them.
