Yesterday we went to Twin Lakes to see if our cardboard boats would float. But before that, we all rode in real canoes. It was fun but it kinda hurt your arms. We went down the lake and then raced the other group. We won! However, the person in front of me kept splashing me....a lot.
After the canoe race we put our own creations into the water. We used our math skills, and cooperation skills, to build a boat out of only cardboard and duct tape. Everyone said that ours wouldn't float and it sucked. The apperance actually wasn't too appealing. I think three boats sunk and the rest floated. Ours floated. The bottom of the boat didn't even get wet. Not only did we receive full credit, but our group was the fastest. I was suprised.
During the construction of the project I hated it. At the end I think it was worth it.
