This week Year 1 completed their D.T day, looking at sliders and levers and how they operate! We explored different types of levers and sliders and researched the mechanism behind them! We then decided to design our own sliders and levers after reading ‘The Runaway Iceberg‘. This inspired us to use the Antarctica setting and create our own moving characters! We then evaluated our work and looked at what we could improve and do better next time! We had lots of fun with this D.T activity, especially using split pins for the very first time!!!
