Year 1 – Marble Mazes

In Design and Technology Year 1 have been designing and making marble runs or mazes. First we had to decide whether we would make either a marble run or maze and then we drew our designs and listed what equipment we would need. Then we used boxes, straws, lids, matchsticks and other resources to make the marble runs and mazes. Finally we tested and evaluated them. Some children loved being engineers and others decided it was harder than they initially thought; nevertheless we all had lots of fun!
