Float or sink?
The world of buoyancy is a new unit in K2 this year. Building off of units on the Pilgrims and Christopher Columbus, we wanted to talk about boats and see how they work. Through mini-experiments, sensory play and model making, the K2 learned about the principals of buoyancy (an object's ability to float) and also had lots of fun getting wet!
