DT Week Year 6: Construction is go!

DT Week - Time to create!

Rhyme Time was lots of fun today. Thank you to the parents who came. Remember it is on every Wednesday at 2:50!

History Show It! We made posters this afternoon, sharing our knowledge of Mill Hill's history, including Cotton Mills and key figures. The children were great at comparing the school's past and present. Find out what your children's sticky knowledge is!

We had lots of fun on our autumn walk!

We have been learning about Bonfire Night this morning. We loved tasting Parkin.

Working on our segmenting in Reception.

Year 1 Castle Challenge Success!

Year 4 kicked off DT Week with a tasty biscuit investigation today. After sampling, they moved into a critical analysis, evaluating and describing the packaging, texture, and look of each biscuit, while also considering its target audience.

DT Week: Investigating Strength - We worked out how to create the strongest structures and bridges. Lots of problem solving going on here!

DT Week: Investigating Joins - In groups we have created different joins such as flanges, slots, braces and tabs to see which ones will work for our shelters. We loved this session.

DT Week: Investigating Water Resistance. We used pipettes and syringes to investigate which materials we are going to select for our shelters. Great scientific investigations and careful work year 6!
