To conclude our studies on gravity, the 4th grade scientists at BCPS in Belle Chasse have applied all they have learned into making their own balloon car racer, powered by balloon, that will travel 5 meters. The ingenuity alone was amazing, but like snowflakes, no two cars were alike. Every single student was a winner because of what they learned by their own brainpower. Check out the races below:

Students were given directions to build a car that had at least three wheels (that weren't made as wheels) and could roll at least 5 meters powered completely by balloon. The student also had to be able to blow up his/her own balloon. Most students studied their classmates designs to gain insight on how to make their own car even better.
At BCPS we make learning fun!
