Year 4 – Making Torches
The children have been studying circuits and electricity in Science and designing and making torches in Design Technology. The children had two design briefs and had to create their torch for that person (either a cave explorer or a criminal catcher) Here are some of the comments from the children:
Euan – I enjoyed making the circuit and then putting it inside the bottle to make a real-life torch.
Sienna – I love that we learnt to make a torch from all different materials. I enjoyed making the switch the most as I wasn’t expecting it to make it work!
Bobby – I enjoyed making the torch. It was fun getting to cut the bottle open and learn new things.
Aaliyah – I liked drawing all the little details on the torch.
