What fun we had today! Miss told us all about her friend Humpty Dumpty who wanted to go skydiving and she asked us to help. We had to decide what shape parachute he would need, the size of the parachute, the length of the string and what protection Humpty would need. We thought about the effect of gravity and decided the parachute had to be big because we needed as much air resistance as we could to slow him down.
We had great fun making our parachutes, making sure Humpty was protected and then letting Humpty Dumpty go skydiving. We did tell him we thought it was a bad idea. Out of the nine parachutes two Humpty's survived :0) The others unfortunately ended like this!
