P.1a have been designing and constructing models using different resources.

First we used cocktail sticks and dried beans to build a house for the Three Little Pigs. We  had to think about how to make the house stable so that it didn’t collapse!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We then created a vehicle which can move using modelling materials and investigating the forces of push and pull to make it travel. We worked as a team to solve problems and come up with ideas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We could describe our models to each other.

We also had a parent visitor who told us about a competition to design an app called ‘Make it Happen.’ We were so excited to come up with ideas!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We decided if we wanted to work in a group or individually and made a draft of our design ideas.

Here are some of our ideas!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well done P.1a!
