In D.T this term, Sunflower Class have been learning all about structures and how to make a chair that is strong and stable. We have finally got round to making our chairs for Baby Bear, and testing them out with real teddies! Each group got up and presented their design to the class, tested it out and then discussed what they thought they had done well and what they would do next time to improve. Lots of children were keen to try again, so there might be some chairs being built over the half term break!
