Instructions

We talk to the section about weight and power. The battery and elastic band powered car would be smaller than the water jet. We also talked about actual car power, could you use elastic bands or water? The groups had 10 mins to decide on a design for their cars. Their was plenty of adult support, so that they could ask advice.
They played a game to decide who would build what design.
