3c Moving Monsters

DT project linked to DINOSAURS Topic

We are learning today…•    how air pressure can be

used to produce and control movement

•    techniques for making simple pneumatic systems

10th January 2008

What I’m Looking for…•   explain how simple pneumatic systems work using appropriate vocabulary •   are familiar with techniques for making simple pneumatic systems

10th January 2008

What does the air do?

How has it been used in the design of these products?

We are going to construct a simple pneumatic system by joining a balloon to some tubing and then to a syringe.

But first….

http://www.ngfl-cymru.org.uk/vtc/pneumatic_pumps/eng/Introduction/pop1.htm

In your groups join a balloon to some tubing and then to a syringe to

construct a pneumatic system like this…

• Investigate: • What happens to the air when you squeeze the

syringe?• What happens when you let go? • What happens if you put fabric over the balloon

and then squeeze the syringe?

• Can you lift a book with the balloon?

We are learning today…•    to compare different simple pneumatic systems

•    describe how they work

17th January 2008

What I’m Looking for…•   you can compare the systems•   are familiar with techniques for making simple pneumatic systems

17th January 2008

We are learning to…•    to compare three simple pneumatic systems

• describe how they work

24th January

What I’m Looking for…• You can compare the systems• Are familiar with techniques for making simple pneumatic systems •Record your answers•Work together

We are going to construct simple pneumatic systems by joining a balloon,

syringes and tubing. But first let’s recap….

Designing your Moving Monster

We are learning We are learning to …to …•Design a monster with at least one moving part

•Use one of the pneumatic systems we have looked at

What I’m looking for…What I’m looking for…•You can design a moving monster

•Include at least one moving part

•List what materials you will need

We are learning We are learning to …to …•Create a step by step guide

•Choose one design to build as a group

What I’m looking for…What I’m looking for…•You can create a step by step guide

•Work together to decide on a design project

• completed the step by step guide

•Used pictures

•Given clear instructions

We are learning We are learning to …to …•Work as a team to build our Moving Monster

•Draw and evaluate our finished model
