Year 2
Ferris wheels
Year 2 have been working together to make ferris wheels, as part of their mechanisms DT unit during the summer term. They worked collaboratively, to build the ferris wheel, to include the design criteria: pods, a base, a moving part (wheel and axle) and a frame.
Baby Bear's chair
During their structures unit, Year 2 learned about what makes a strong and stable structure. The children explored making paper cylinder tubes, to build a strong and stable 3D chair structure, to seat Baby Bear, based on the story, 'Goldilocks and the 3 Bears'.
Christmas stockings and pouches
In the Autumn term, Year 2 were busy designing and making christmas stockings, or pouches as part of their textiles unit of work. They learned how to sew the material together using a running stitch.
