Make your own Moon Craters!

Materials:

A Plate

Flour

Four different sized rocks


What to do:

  1. First put some flour in a plate.

  2. Then get your rocks and put them in a row from smallest to largest.

  3. Get the largest rock and drop it into the flour from about 1 metre.

  4. When you have dropped it in pick it up carefully out of the flour and look at the hole.

  5. If you would like draw a diagram of your craters.

  6. Once you used the flour with all four rocks try it with sand.

My Prediction:


I predict that when you drop the rocks into the flour it will make a deeper hole because the flour is softer so it will have more effect than the sand because the sand is a lot harder and thicker.
