This term in Digitech the students in years 3 to 6 have been participating in the Lego Engineering program. The students work in groups to build the Lego model whilst learning about the forces that help to make it work. Most models require a motor and some use a special bluetooth motor that can can be controlled using the Wedo program on our Chromebooks.

The 3/4 students have built a variety of models including a crane, railroad barrier and a towing vehicle. The 5/6 students have built a forklift, battle-tank and a caterpillar robot.

We are all learning lots of skills and knowledge about how different machines work in our world as well as having fun with building the different Lego models.

Here are some photos of models that we have built recently.
