STEAMED Autumn 2017
STEAMED Autumn 2017
What a great start to the new half term! The boys have been very busy learning, through exciting teaching and the opportunity to be hands-on, about their fantastic STEAMED topic, Technology from the developing world.
Pre-reception and Reception boys investigated recycling and reusing and created boats.
Year 1 learnt about wind power and made their own wind turbine. They went on to evaluate what material worked the best.
Year 2 tackled the issue of everyday waste and created items with crisp packets.
Year 3 made clocks from objects that would otherwise have been thrown away. Next week they will set them to various time zones around the world.
Year 4 made bottle planters.
Year 5 created wind-powered water pumps and toy vehicles that moved on their own.
Year 6 designed and made attractive (and comfortable!) wooden furniture.
