This term Harakeke have been learning about Simple Machines, Multiple Intelligences,

PowerPoint and we have a Jump-Jam session everyday. We have used our new PowerPoint

skills to make a slide each to show you what we have been doing.

A lever is used to trigger things. It can be used for fun as well as work, such as a see-saw and your arm.

Your elbow is the fulcrum and the lower part of your arm is the effort arm.

Components and special features.

How does it work?What does it do?

When where and why is it used?

We decided we could take others on a science journey, teaching them about simple machines using our PowerPoint skills, our Multiple Intelligences strengths, the key competencies to help them and us learn.
