Lego Education Kits in 4th Class

13th Jun 2024

On Tuesday,  6th Class visited 4th Class to show us Lego Education kits. We wanted to learn about engineering .


The problem we were given was to get a LEGO Technic car and make it move with just wind.


First we got into our teams and we picked the builders and the pickers and then we swapped later on. 


Second, We built the Lego in time so we could get into the competition with only with wind pushing a car. We made sails out of plastic sheets.  One team had an electric engine, but their course was harder.


Third we cleaned everything up to go over to the race.  


Fourth, Mr Barry got a small whiteboard and waved it 20 times to see how far the car would travel. 


There were four cars in the race at the end.
