Year Ones had a ball attending the Maker Space at lunchtimes on a Tuesday last term. Kids completed different problem solving activities including making a marble maze out of different materials, creating the tallest tower with only 6 blocks touching the ground, and making a chair that holds the weight of a toy. Kids went further with their original idea by persisting to make their creation better after they completed their first attempt. Students had lots of fun going through the process of designing, creating and improving. Some of the Year Twos have taken up the challenge of trying to fix measuring scales that were going to get thrown away. This term Year Twos and Threes will be looking at making vehicles that move out of recyclable materials.
