Marvellous Y1 Bridges!
17th Mar 2019
Last week the children investigated different ways to manipulate paper in order to strengthen it, including: folding, pleating and rolling.
On Friday, in small groups, the children drew on their skills in order to design and make a bridge using only newspaper and tape.
Their challenge was to create a structure capable of holding a 1KG weight.
It was not an easy task but the children worked together well.
Well done everyone! It was a challenge but you all tried so hard!
The children then completed a sheet to evaluate their bridge and consider strengths and weaknesses.
