How quick this half term has flown! In design technology this term, we have used our scientific knowledge of electrical systems to aid us with our topic. Through exploration of toys, we have thought about a product being fit for purpose, its function, aesthetics and target audience prior to the planning process. The children used their mathematical knowledge to produce a base made from nets. Then added their electrical system that included a buzzer. I am sure you can imagine the noise level within class as each child became successful in their task, producing a working toy!

Next half term, we turn our attention to Food Tech, where they will plan a nutritious three course meal in groups. We have an added twist this year where they will be cooking it all in Forest School. Miss Lavelle and I are really excited to be doing this and cannot wait to see what they come up with! Your class teacher will let you know in advance what ingredients your child will need for their session.

Have a lovely May half term break,

God Bless
