Grades 10-12: Trash Boat Race


Description:I would like to challenge another class to a trash boat race. Each class would break up into teams (lab groups) and build their own boat. However, the boats must be made completely out of used soda bottles, used cans, and used plastic bags. No money should be spent on supplies because everything needs to be recycled. Each class would then race their boats across a pool. Afterwords our classes would come together and discuss the science and reasoning behind each boat along with how it worked out.
Dates:Some time in mid to late November. Any day would work at any time.
Sign up method:Exploding Collaboration
Grades:10, 11, 12, Undergrad
Subjects:Mathematics, Science (Physical)
