In this lesson, students learn that scientists and engineers use modification. They read Papa’s Mechanical Fish, a historical fiction book based on the inventive work of Lodner Phillips. After reading, students design a boat using specified materials to carry cookies (pennies). This is a float-and-sink challenge with a design element. This selection highlights how scientists and engineers work and it includes the Table of Contents, Foreword, Acknowledgments, About the Authors, and Index.
