Designing and making

Yesterday Mrs Warner gave us a challenge. Could  we make a graded sieve? There was a Desiger Award on offer. Dylan and Joe won it because their product was the best!

    5. Hi William, Jessica, Tullyanne and Michaela

      Thank you very much for replying to the questions I left. I now have a clear idea of what a graded sieve is. You have also had a really good go at explaining why Joe and Dylan won the Design Award.
      I am also teaching in Year 4 this year, so I may show my class your work when we come to this Science topic. We have just started a Science called "Circuits and Conductors" and the children are really looking forward to making their own electrical circuits.
      As for William's question about how I am, I am very well thank you.

    1. Hi Sade,

      Thank you answering my question about why Joe and Dylan's sieve won the Design Award. From your answer and the answers from other members of your class I've learnt lots about graded sieves.
