P6 Viking Boat Hull Investigation

 

During our Viking topic in Term 1 we looked at the design of viking boat hulls.  We had a go at designing our own hulls and making them with tinfoil.  We then testing them to see which one held the most weight.

These pictures show some of P6 carrying out their investigation.
