All about wheels
Today year 1 children took part in an exciting Design and Technology workshop all about “wheels”. The objective was to better understand how wheels move. After investigating how wheels move on a variety of different objects, the children were then asked to create a simple version of a wheel mechanism, including an axle, wheel and axle holder.
We took some pictures at both the design stage and during the manufacturing process, which can be seen in the gallery below. Please click on the thumbnails for a closer view.
