The Sky’s the limit this week….

Ideas to build today: Blast off in your own rocket to Space or fly in a Aeroplane or helicopter. 

Can you make a propeller like a windmill and channel the wind? Straws, cardboard, tape, recycled materials, cloth, foil are all adaptable materials. Do you need a powerful engine or can you glide? 

Or you could design and build a nest or bird house. What materials are comfortable? E.g: Feathers and straw. Does it have a roof, an entrance? Can a bird fit in? You might prefer to make an insect or bee home? Where is a good place to put it & why? 

We are understanding working theories about how the world works. We are problem solving. 

This week’s learning points:
