For the past two terms we've been working on a technology project called 'A Treasure for my Treasure'. We've worked with Mrs Nair and Mrs Davidson to plan, design, and make a special treasure for a special person. Ask us to tell you all about the process! It started in Term 1 when we explored the properties of different materials and decided on the resources we'd need to make our treasure. Then we had to think about who we were making it for and design something meaningful for them. After that we worked on our treasure - we needed plenty of adult help to cut the metal and use the power tools (thanks to all our wonderful parents who helped out over our 4 technology days - we couldn't do it without you!!!). We filed, painted, and touched up our treasures. We also needed to explore geometrical nets as we designed a box to hold our treasures. We decorated our boxes and had to consider and figure out how we would fasten the lid. Did you get a special treasure from one of us? What did you think of it? Who would you make a special treasure for?
