Alicia- Simple Machines

Today Glen Innes School held a Simple Machine Expo. Room 8’s topic was to use the Wheel and Axle and the Pulley to create a Simple Toy. Just after Lunchtime we all headed to the hall to observe the toys created. In my opinion, my favourite one was Room 7’s Ferris Wheel. It was very easy to identify the fact that they used the Wheel and Axle and it moved like a dream. I really enjoyed the Expo and I wonder if they will have another one but on a different topic.

Harrison - Science Expo

Today we had the school wide science expo. Each class had to present their topic learning in a fun and creative way. Our class displayed it by creating toys using simple machines, we had the option of using either pulleys or wheel and axles. I made mine using pulleys. I really enjoyed looking and learning about the different simple machines.
