Primary 4-7 have been learning about sound as part of their science topic this term. They boldly took on the challenge of designing and constructing an instrument capable of making sound. Many skills were used such as:
- identifying how sound might be produced
- selecting and joining materials
- using maths to calculate water volume ratios
- modifying the design to overcome problems
- testing
- decorating for visual appeal
There was an impressive array of creative ideas using pitch, percussion and wind to produce sound in a variety of ways. Barbara judged the winning designs:
- 1st Rowan Harbottle
- 2nd Livvy Cumming
- 3rd Lee Gaunt
