Year 3 have had a busy week full of lots of learning. Two of the lessons that the children enjoyed most were DT and Computing. In DT, we have been exploring linkage and lever systems. This week, we created our own working models using card and split pins. We experimented with fixed and loose pivots, testing how effectively our systems worked by pushing and pulling the linkages to make the levers move.

In Computing, we have begun to learn about animation. As an introduction to animation, we created our own simple flip-book animations to show a character waving their arm up and down.
