Torch Making
In Design and Technology and to link with our Science unit on light, we have been looking at circuits and how to make a successful circuit with a bulb and a switch.
We then looked at different torches and thought about what made them successful. After this, we designed our own torch following a design brief. We then worked to make our own torches. This involved a lot of fine motor skills and perseverance. However, by the end of the lesson, we all had a full working torch. We are excited about taking them home to use on a dark walk.
We also looked back at our designs and finished torches to see what we had to change and why, what we did well, etc.
