Lego Machines

In 6K we are making Lego machines. We all made different machines. Me and my team were doing a machine that looks a lot like a twister but we didn't finish it yet. I worked with Maisie and Misha . Some people made a train or different exciting things. We had a lot of fun with the Lego machines some of us even found some Lego people to put on the machines, me and my team found two Lego people for our machine. We hope to finish it soon.

building lego models

In science we are building lego models, my team built a windmill and we had to and gears to make it move. To move the windmill, we had to a turn long lego piece and the two wheel with spikes (spur gear) rotated and that made the windmill rotate. IT WAS GREAT!!!

Lego Model

On the 9 of February Year 6 have been making 3D models from Lego they were very good and Ms Keating said it was fantastic. It took a lot of time to do it and also it was very hard because there were lots of parts and I (Jakub) did something wrong but I fixed it in 5 minutes! That's how hard it was, also I did it on my own so no one will interrupt. This is my model below, look at it and leave a comment.

Lego Machine Makers

6k and 6c have been making lego machines on wednesday 9th february 2011. Everyone worked really well and we really enjoyed it.
