Year 7B's project to make spears, axe, bow and arrow

 


The pupils showed an interest in continuing with their group project of constructing their own spear, axe or bow and arrow. The pupils enjoyed using various tools such as sand paper to smooth the edges of their spear or axe, pliers, Stanley knives and saws to cut off the debris from their stick or log, as well as taking it in turns to access an electric planer which they moved in a variety of motions of back and forth or around in a circle to create and form the outer shape of their bow and arrow or "Gandalf's staff". After they had finished, one of the pupils was given the choice of what colour paint they would like to decorate their axe or spear as they identified "I am using a reddy gold".
