Session 1 – February 2020
Hands on session with paints, magnets and iron filings! A successful, messy, creative day had by all! It was so great to have our Engineer Matt helping to reinforce the workshop.
it’s like a vacuum cleaner trying to suck the iron filings away
I’ve got magnets at home, I never thought of doing this with them
Session 2 – March 2020
The children managed to make their own swinging magnet to help move their wire flowers…
Well done year 5 🌼
it’s like drawing but with a wire
the magnet looks like it’s blowing my flower
Session 3 – March 2020
Super sunflowers by year 5 today, ready for their magnetic movement installation…
this wire is thicker than last week, is the magnet going to be strong enough?
