Term 4

Our Car Design and Build Project will end with a Competition

Our project is going to involve design and technology, mathematics and science (forces).

 

To learn about the design features of cars we are going to:

 

  • Research model car design with trials of toy cars and use the internet.

To start to explore and develop our ideas we are going to:

 

  • Design possible solutions to the competition brief using sketches, labelled and exploded diagrams.

 

 

To make models of our car designs we are going to:

 

  • Learn to measure, cut and join resistant materials.

 

  • Consider forces when developing designs and prototypes.

 

 

To evaluate and improve our designs we will:

 

  • Test and evaluate model designs.

 

  • Modify designs in light of test results.

 

  • Draw upon research and test results to produce final competition vehicle.

 

 

To finish our project we will enter our car in a competition to see which one rolls the furthest down a ramp.
