Project Overview
This companion project teaches children about levers, linkages and sliders. They then design and make greetings cards using these mechanisms.
It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy – Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.
