This Science Week, children in Jet Class were challenged to design, build, test and modify a parachute.
After learning about parachutes, gravity and air resistance, we designed our parachutes and decided on the materials we would use.
Then with a partner, we built the parachute.
Finally we tested our parachute, made some modifications based on our first test and then tested again.
Have a look at the pictures of some of our final parachutes!
