What have we been up to this week?
Last week the children in Year 1 visited Stonebridge City Farm and saw the farmers planting lots of seeds for their new crops. They also saw lots of birds getting ready to eat the seeds! So the children got thinking about how they could help the farmers stop the birds from eating their seeds. Using their Design and Technology skills, the children created a design for a scarecrow with moving parts which would frighten the birds away. They then used their designs to make their scarecrow and evaluated the success of the moving parts. As you can see they did a great job!
