Fun with Wooden animals in 6C.

A lot of children were out celebrating Eid on Thursday and Friday (and we hope they had a wonderful time), while the children who were in class really enjoyed coming off timetable to make wooden animals. They had to sketch out an animal and adapt it to squared paper using horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines only. They then used this template to see which lengths of wood they needed to cut out. They layered the wood up and glued them together to create their animals.

DT Making Wooden Frames

We are using accurate measuring and cutting skills to get the correct sized pieces of wooden deal. We will construct and secure the frame in place with glued (card)triangles for maximum strength.
