Topic Task
DT:
I have been excitedly waiting for it to be my turn to set a DT challenge. I have enjoyed seeing your blog posts where lots of DT has been going on from delicious cooking to sewing and woodwork! Well done everyone. This week your challenge is to make a ‘marble run’! Below are some ideas. Let your imagination run wild, use anything you can find at home.
Perhaps you could time your marble, who can keep their marble moving for the longest time? Or maybe it could be about distance, who can make the longest run? Maybe you could take it outside and swap the marble for a football and try to create a ‘run’ around your garden. For those of you who think you might like to be a future engineer…why not pit yourself against the design engineers at Dyson to create a marble run that takes exactly one minute! (Also available to download at the bottom).
Post photos or videos on your class padlet…I’ll be scanning through to see what you’ve created. Good luck, Mrs Fisher! If you enjoy this challenge and want more DT inspiration, there are a set of activities available here:
Number Monday
Here is today’s task. After you have completed it, there are three tasks on Purple Mash for you to do, all based on multiplication and division.
Don’t forget to spend 15 minutes on TT Rock Stars! Maciej was the champion again last week – well done!☺
