Designers part 3

During our Designers lesson today, we watched how paper is recycled and made into new paper. We compared this to our learning from last week where we explored how paper is made from trees. We are looking forward to making our own paper next week; please send in any old newspapers you have at home.

After lunch, we went along to the Makerspace room. Here, we built on our skills from last week where we used a roller and safe saw and were introduced to screw drivers and screws. Our design brief was to create a 2D robot, connected together with screws. Mrs Stephenson loved seeing how proud we were of all of our creations!

Terrific Tuesday!

Today was a great day in 3.11!

The children are settling really well into their routine of coming into class, ordering their lunch and beginning their morning starter.

After some reading together, we went on to the pitch for P.E. We started with our daily mile and then some rounders! It was glorious ☀️

After break and some Maths tasks, we carried on with our Designers pathway in Mearns Masters. We learned all about the process of making paper. We sequenced each step and stuck these in our jotters 🙂

This afternoon, we went along to our Makerspace room and were introduced to the ‘Makedo’ tools. We used the safe saw and the roller, cutting out different shapes in cardboard. After we were comfortable with using the tools, we were given measurements to create a bookmark and then cut these out. Mrs Stephenson was so impressed!
