Year One’s DT unit has been about stable structures. We began by being creative with construction toys which helped us think about strong foundations and structures having a wider base 🛕🗼. We had a visit from one of our parents who does this as part of his job. He told us about how he uses the skills we are learning about to build roads🛣️ and bridges🌉 and how important teamwork is 👫 We worked as teams to make strong structures from recycled materials 📦 then moved on to using plasticine, straws and pipe cleaners. Today we have used all our learning to create strong pencil pots that we can use at home ✏️
