Terrific Tudor Houses
We have been busy today putting the finishing touches to our Tudor houses, the children have yet again amazed me with how brilliantly they have cooperated and supported each other, superstars!
DT - Under Construction!
Today, we started building our ancient Egyptian shadufs. We discussed the importance of safety when using the equipment, before working collaboratively to get our models underway. We are really enjoying the project so far!

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…
DT Investigating Shapes
Today we used the plastic shapes to help us develop our ideas about how to build a house. We thought about which shapes worked best and learnt lots about 3D shapes. We made cubes,cuboid, pyramids and triangular prisms. Some of us got creative and tried other shapes too. Working out which…
