# Dancing birds!

Last term, Pupils in Year 6 explored electrical circuits within their science and DT lessons. Within DT, the majority of pupils designed and made dolls houses with lights and sounds; a small group made dancing toy birds.

With a flick of a switch, the birds dance, vibrate and spin around. Once completed, Year 6 pupils shared the toys with Year R who helped them to evaluate their products. Most wanted one for their birthday present. Success!

Year 6 worked very hard to plan, make and evaluate their toy birds (and doll houses). They are brilliant! Please view our gallery below:
