Float Your Boat - Buoyancy Experiment.

Get ready for an exciting experiment that combines science and engineering! In this worksheet, you will become a boat designer.

Your goal is to create two different boat designs using materials like foil, plastic, or cardboard. After building your boats, you’ll place them in a container of water and gradually add weights to each boat to see how much they can hold before sinking.

Record your findings and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each boat design. This activity will help you learn about buoyancy and how different materials and shapes can affect a boat’s ability to stay afloat.
