Scream Machine

Project Overview

Use our pre-planned Year 5 science project, Scream Machine, to teach children about mechanisms and forces. Our high-quality teaching resources help children develop their knowledge about the properties of materials, pulleys and prototypes.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy โ€“ Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express โ€“ 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.
