2/4 Jet provost Walk-round. Use the poster from 1/1 and see if you can spot the control surfaces on the jet. Can you make and engineer your paper plane to have the same? Throw, tinker and observe. BUT..why does the science make this happen? youtube.com/watch?v=HOLjC0FI…
#Day41 #ScienceActivity Let's explore floating and sinking today. Find some items from around the house; use a bowl, bucket, sink or bath of water - can you predict which float and which sink? Why? #ScienceFromHome #DrJoScience #HomeSchooling #GetAGrownUp
