Simple Machines

Our inquiry for the term is 'Moving Toys' so the first thing we are going to inquir about are Simple Machines (Physical World) so that we can learn about all the types of simple machines and then apply our knowledge and skills to making our toys later in the term. Over the past two weeks we have looked at levers, wedges and inclined planes. We have completed wordsearches, experiements and assessment tasks related to our learning.
