Homework week beginning 31st August 2026

In class, we have been testing four different forces – tension, shear, torsion and compression. For homework, children are welcome to test these forces against objects or items at home and have a think about the following questions:

What force was the object weak against?

What force was the object strong against?

Would this be a good material for building a bridge?

They will be given the opportunity to share any findings in class.

Homework week beginning 21st  September 2026
In class, we have been learning how to identify and classify different bridges. Homework for this week will be to spot bridges locally and try to identify what they are (this could also be completed using Google maps).
Spot some bridges and have a chat about if they fit the criteria for any of the bridges we learnt about last week:
Suspension, Cantilever, Beam and Arch.
Children will be given the opportunity to share any findings during class time.
