Bridge the gap! Construction tools

ARCHITECTS OF ABBEY As part of Year 3’s Design Technology learning, the children have been learning about bridges and what strengthens different structures. The children then had the opportunity to design their own model bridge. After carefully measuring and marking each dowelling, the children safely used a saw to cut their pieces ready to assemble. The construction of the bridges required an extreme amount of patience and the children persevered until their bridges were complete. The unit of work was concluded by the children completing an evaluation of the final product and they were able to think about what had changed and how their final product differed to their original design. The year 3 staff are really proud of how hard the children have worked and if you have any DIY jobs at home, you know who to call on! P.s. A huge thank you to all the support staff who helped the children construct their bridges.

Thanks to Mrs. Kaur for the story.

BACK TO WORK Everyone at Abbey is delighted to see the children returned. We are all working hard to follow the school’s safety measures to keep everyone safe. Heads down and working on day 2 of wider re- opening. Welcome back and well done Year 2!
