P7 Anderson Shelters

As part of our WW2 topic, P7 have been learning about Anderson shelters.  Pairs were set a challenge to design and build and Anderson shelter model which could withstand a 1kg weight, be waterproof, hold at least 6 Lego people and be appropriate for the time.  The pupils were very creative and before testing, evaluated their models by comparing them to their original designs.

Some of the models coped better with the 1kg weight and water than others!
