Ahoy Friend!
In today's tutorial we are going to set sail for the high seas and practice our boat building skills as we learn a bit about buoyancy! Let's build an aluminum foil boat together and see how much weight (or cargo) you can carry!

Hi! I’m Mr. Crowley and I’m an elementary tech lab teacher who is trying to move my content online. My goal in these videos is to bring elements of my science, technology, engineering, art, and math curriculum (STEAM) online to better serve students everywhere. I hope to have your children design, create, and innovate with the materials you might have laying around. Please feel free to improvise if the materials you have are different, and we would love to have you build with us! These videos are extension activities that are designed to provide an opportunity for your students to work away from a screen (after watching the video) If you have suggestions or feedback please let me know and I would love to see what you and your children are able to create!
