This week is science week. Here are a few pictures of the science challenge we tried yesterday and the instructions if you wish to try it at home. Here is a website with information on different events on to mark science week- www.science.ie- Enjoy
•Cut out a large square from your plastic
bag or material.
•Trim the edges so it looks like an
octagon (an eight sided shape).
•Cut a small whole near the edge of each
side.
•Attach 8 pieces of string of the same
length to each of the holes.
•Tie the pieces of string to the object
you are using as a weight.
•Use a chair or find a high spot to drop
your parachute and test how well it worked, remember that you want it to drop
as slow as possible
