  This week P2/3 have been busy completing different tasks relating to their Food, Textiles and Technology focus week. Technology (Robots): We became engineers and designed and created our own 2D moving robots using cardboard and MakeDo tools. We explored measuring and marking with rulers, joining materials and creating moving parts. We developed our problem-solving, creativity and adapting our ideas when things didn’t quite go to plan! Textiles (Weaving): We explored the art of weaving using lollypop sticks and colourful wool. We learned how to weave over and under the sticks, experiment with colours and patterns, and carefully handle textile materials.<br><br><a class="more-link" href="https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/dg/SheuchanPrimarySchool/food-textiles-and-technology-week-07-09-26-11-09-26/">Read More</a>
