Umiartorpoq!


The 5th graders have been working with wind in their natural science classes. In this lesson we wanted to have a little more fun.


Irene made sure we caught everything on camera, while Kevin and William tried not to sink their boats in our classroom watertank.


The boats were made from glass jar lids, foam, matchsticks and a paper sail.


We used balloons to make the wind...


...and then we had a yacht race!


It was fun and, amazingly, we did not spill one drop of water - but we did sink a few boats!
