Finding Story Details
The Wiggly Water Test
On Thursday morning, Carlos and Zoe carried a clear tub of water to their science fair table. Their project tested which paper boat could carry the most pennies. Carlos had folded a wide boat, and Zoe had made a narrow one. At first, the wide boat held twelve pennies. Then one side dipped into the water, and the boat tipped. “Maybe the pennies are too close to the edge,” Zoe said. She and Carlos moved the pennies toward the middle and tried again. This time, the boat held fifteen pennies before it sank. A younger visitor stopped at their table. “Can I try?” he asked. Carlos showed him how to place each penny gently. The visitor added one, then another. The boat bobbed, but it stayed afloat. At the sixteenth penny, water slipped over the side. “We found out that a boat’s shape matters,” Zoe told the visitor. “And spreading out the weight helps, too.” Carlos wrote their results on a card so everyone at the fair could see what they had learned.
