This week in primary six we have been preparing for our forthcoming K’nex Challenge due to take place next week.
We started with simple challenges such as creating various 2D and 3D shapes but quickly progressed on to constructing more complex models, like wheelbarrows, see-saws and sailboats. Through this we’ve also looked at constructing levers and pulleys, analysing how this can add to a design by making certain functions easier to carry out.
