Year 6 STEM

For Children in Need, Year 6 were tasked with a silent STEM challenge. Both VWh and PASB classes were put together, informed of the task, organised into random pairs, given their equipment/ whiteboard (to communicate with) and then sent on their way! The aim was to construct a vehicle using a balloon, 4 cotton reels, 2 straws and a plastic cup- this proved to be much harder than they anticipated! Often, the axels of the vehicle were too low, which created an opposing force. Our winners were Tallulah and Hayden.
