DT - exploring sliders

For our D.T, Year 1 are designing and constructing moving picture books, based on the story of Humpty Dumpty. We started out by exploring mechanisms; sliders and levers. We have been developing our fine motor skills by carefully cutting around the parts for our rabbit jumping out of the hat! We used blu tac and a pencil to carefully punch holes in the hat so that we could cut a gap to allow for our slider to go through. We love our jumping bunnies and they have helped us to develop the skills we need for the next stage of our project!
