P2/3 STEM challenge – to design a bike accessory

P2/3 for their STEM challenge at open day on Wednesday 15th March had to design a bike seat for Mr Tickles or Snuggles.

We learned to:

consider a design brief
take part in a group discussion in our bike teams
draw a design sketch
make a seat from cardboard that had fastenings and would be of an appropriate size
evaluate their designs

Alfie said it was quite hard to make the seat. He thought the cutting and shaping to make it fit was tricky.

Nathan thought it was fun and a little bit hard. It was hard to decide on who had the best design in his group.

Jessica thought it was fun to have the parents and grandparents come into the class to help. She thought her design was fun to make but was not so sure how practical it was.
