Year 1

The children in year 1 have learnt all about the mechanism of levers and how they can be used to enhance pictures and story books. The children learnt how levers can move things up and down, as well as left to right. 

The children practiced their cutting and sticking skills on a rabbit in a hat before they moved on to making a nursery rhyme scene come to life! 

In our second unit of the year, the children explored joining methods with fabric. The children designed, cut out and made their own hand puppet based on specific design criteria. 

As a mini project during World Book Day week, we used some of our scientific knowledge about floating and sinking, to make rafts for the Gingerbread Man to cross the river. The children considered different joining techniques alongside different materials to work out the best for the task.
