| Materials: Styrofoam meat tray, 2 bigger tin foil trays Shapes: rectangles for the hull Details: no sails Thoughts: I was thinking of a balance scale because it has a big top. I wanted my boat to be flat and to hold lots of pennies. Justin |
Materials: I used wood and nails Shapes: I used a house shape and 2 rectangles at the back of the boat Details: none Thoughts: I saw the boat in a book. I put the rectangles at the back so that the wind could hit them and it would go up and hit the top of the sails. This would make the boat go forward. Logan |

| Materials:styrofoam, popsicle sticks, and paper Shapes:houselike shapes Details: I tried to make a pointy shaped boat so that it could go fast. I put some sails on to steer the boat in a certain direction. Thoughts: In my bathtub I tested my shapes. I blew the boats with a straw to see how fast it would go. Kieran |
Materials:styrofoam, popsicle sticks, and paper Shapes:pentagon shaped boat Details: The back sail is different as it is rounded at the top. Thoughts: I tested this boat in my bathtub and blew it around with my straw. I learned that smaller boats have to have keels because it tipped over. Kieran |
Materials:styrofoam, popsicle sticks, and paper Shapes:narrow housed shaped boat Details: I tried putting a keel on the bottom but it fell off and it tipped over. My sails are square shaped and the back sail is made out of plastic. Thoughts: I thought it would go really fast if the shape was narrow. I learnedthat smaller shaped boats could move faster because of the point in the front. Kieran |
