As part of our science topic: ‘Everyday materials’, Class 1 had a discussion about the Three Little Pigs and the materials they made their houses from. We discussed what material we thought would be the best to make a house from. We all agreed bricks was the sensible choice because they were the strongest.
In groups, the children made three houses using the following materials: duplo bricks, straw and wooden lolly sticks.
We then tested which house was the strongest by using a fan to test whether the house stayed up. We had a lot of fun!
