Year 7A decorating their wooden robot

The pupils showed an interest in continuing to finish off the final parts to their wooden robot. The pupils had a go at either using the electric cutting saw to cut a big piece of wood into a small piece for the robot's neck and operating the drill using their right hand to start and stop and putting their left hand on top to push the drill down to screw two nails into the wood. 



 

After the pupils enjoyed working together to decorate the robot using two colours of paint. The pupils chose "blue" and "silver". One of the pupils said "I want blue because it is my favourite colour". The pupils as a group decided who was going to paint what parts of the robot. One pupil said "the body i think should be blue" when another pupil explained "I think the legs and feet should be silver". 




While the pupils were painting the teacher found an old computer screen and asked if they wanted to use it for the robot's head. All of the pupils agreed with one pupil saying "yeh it will look like the other robot's on the shelf, it will look so cool". The teacher drilled two nails into the computer screen to keep it stable as the pupils after used yellow paint to paint the robot's face.
