Marvellous Machines Workshop for KS1
This workshop focuses on machines and mechanisms as we learn about some of the different kinds of machines that engineers can build.
Children listen to a story and then take elements of the story to build with levers and pulleys. There's an additional Bonus Activity which continues the workshop to learn about and build ramps or inclined planes.
"The children loved the activities - they felt like games so they didn't even realise they were learning."
What you get:
- Interactive Video Workshops with easy to follow instructions to pause and do activities, meaning all the planning and teaching is done for you.
- Practical Activities that emphasise problem solving, collaboration and creative thinking along with engineering concepts and skills.
- Materials List with simple resources like paper straws, paper cups and craft sticks.
- Teacher Information Sheet telling you what we cover, the D&T National Curriculum Links and some follow up ideas to extend the learning.
- Parent Information Sheet to include parents in their children's learning.
- Display Printables and Certificates to remember and celebrate their learning.
The workshop will take around 60-90 minutes in total, though it can be made to last longer.
For £99* you can use the workshop with as many KS1 classes as you like for a whole school term on your own schedule.
Please be aware that for this workshop you will need to source some simple materials in advance such as craft sticks, straws, paper cups and tapes. We estimate the total materials costs for running this workshop with one class of 30 pupils would be £10-£15 with each additional class costing less than this.
