P5 Construct Straw Towers and Make Catapults
1st Mar 2024
Criodàn, from Midlands Science, visited P5 today and led the children in a STEM workshop. He focused particularly on engineering and the children got to construct their own straw towers, trying to make them as high as possible. They then made catapults out of lollypop sticks, spoons and elastic bands. They tested them using poms poms. It was chaotic but brilliant. It was a fun, informative session where the children got to learn about the importance of engineering and choosing a career as an engineer.
