Buddy Time
Friday was such a fun day!! Firstly we met with our buddy and created a boat out of recycled materials. We needed to discuss what we were going to do and then how we would do it.
After lunch we met up with our buddy, picked up our boat then headed to the swimming pool. We felt so excited!!
All of our boats floated! Yay we were successful.
