After lots of practise creating mechanisms, year 1 have begun to design their own moving pictures based on the story of The Billy Goats Gruff. They created a design criteria say agreed their design should meet this included. I think the links to the story and moving part and colourful. Children with to create their individual design undecided which mechanism they would use, many chose a lever or a slider. However, if you have challenged them self to make a wheel. The designs look wonderful and we can’t wait to see them complete.
