Hi it’s Rhys & Niamh together today because we’ve worked together. This morning we went out on our scooters with Mum for 4 1/2 miles, we were hungry and thirsty when we got home.
We have been working on a zip line with a 3 metre cord, Lego figures, sellotape, barbie doll and hanger. We tried round the house to fix the cord, the best place was the door handle. We tried the barbie and coat hanger but they were too heavy for the cord. With the Lego figures we started off with 1 figure and moved the cord closer then further away, the figure was slower going down when we moved the cord further away because it wasn’t as steep. We then added in more Lego figures to be able to get 4 on it, it was slower and bounced as it went down the line.
Now off to do our Lego challenge for today – build a robot body!
Great team work and problem solving skills going on here, well done Rhys and Niamh! Good thinking going out for a walk in the morning. I think you got the best of the sunshine!
Some great photos Rhys and Niamh! Sounds like you’ve done lots of problem solving. Have you enjoyed your Big Thursday today?
Miss Pattie will be delighted that you’ve tried her zip wire challenge – great work guys. Hope you tidied up afterwards. After the engineering, the tidying!!
Miss Dale
Fantastic work Rhys and Niamh. It’s great to see that you tried out lots of different things with your zip wire, I am super impressed. Thank you for sharing all your findings and for the photos and videos!
Thank you, really enjoyed the zip line work and trying different bits. We tidied up after the zip line but the Lego is everywhere just now.
Great to see you guys having a go at this week’s STEM challenge, looks like lots of fun as well as learning!
Brilliant team work with that zip wire – well done you two.
Scooting for 4 1/2 miles sounds like great fun and great exercise! No wonder you were so hungry and thirsty on your return!
