DT Projects: Pneumatic Toy
We have designed our own pneumatic toys with a specific brief of it being a toy that would teach a Year 1 child about how air can be used to make objects move. We have now begun construction - have a look at our work so far!
DT mosaics
This week we have been finishing our mosaics inspired by our previous topic Romans and cross curricular links with RE Islamic mosaics. Here are some pictures of our work.
Pneumatic Systems
In DT we are going to design and make a Pneumatic toy. Today we made predictions about some Pneumatic Systems before testing them to find out how they worked. Here are some of our experiments using syringes and compressed air:
Mosaics
This week we used our final design to create our mosaics. First, we chose the tiles we needed to create our pattern. Then we used PVA glue to secure our tiles. After the glue had dried, we used grout to fill the gaps and cement our mosaics together. We spread the grout on and then washed the excess off with water and a sponge. Have a look at our fabulous finished projects!
