# DT Making a Prototype

  ![Image of DT Making a Prototype](https://files.schudio.com/stokesley-community-primary-school-2/images/blog/0265684E-B527-41CB-B32E-5763E34B9C71.jpeg)  17 October 2019   [Year One Blog](https://stokesleypa.org.uk/blog/category/year-one-blog)

This afternoon we worked in teams to use paper shapes to have a go at making a model house.  We soon realised that the paper was very floppy and flexible and so we needed to make it stronger.  Some people tried using card because it was thicker and stiffer.  We also used straws to help strengthen our structure.  It was very challenging but our super teamwork meant that we all managed to make a house.  We now feel ready to begin making our model Tudor houses.
