recovery systems
Today anja, clara and i made a very large parachute that could "rescue" 3 sand ballons. We used half of a large garbage bag and string. We dropped the parachute from the 6th grade.
I learned that making a parachute is easy but it's important to keep it balanced. We also cut a hole in the top to allow some air to pass through so it would fall more evenly.

Good observations about balance, Louisa. Might this have anything to do with Newton's Laws? Don't forget to revisit the key point of the lab in your blog entry.
