Easter Holidays Day Eight

Today’s challenge is all about your recycling and your imagination. Using only recycled materials we would like you to design a robot / machine, which you think could help with reducing the impact of climate change. This could involve reducing rubbish going to landfill, collecting carbon dioxide, reducing the use of plastics, using renewable energy etc. Your task is to create the robot / machine, explain what it does and how it will help the environment.

A little Tulip
This time of year we tend to send cards and flowers to show that we are thinking of people.
Here is a simple way to make an origami tulip. Do you think you can follow the instruction?
Could you stick them to a card?
Let me know how you do.

Step 1: With the coloured side facing down, fold your paper on the diagonal to make a triangle.
Step 2: Bring the bottom right corner up and to the right of the centre point.
Step 3: Repeat with the left corner, bringing it up and to the left of the centre point.
Step 4: Flip the paper over. Fold the side and bottom points in just a bit, to create a more rounded tulip shape.

As ever it would be great to see what you have created (slt@petworthprimary.co.uk). Good luck!
