Worcestershire STEM Challenge
Year 4 had a fantastic morning with Sarah from STEM works taking part in the Worcestershire Primary STEM Challenge. Children had to design and build a robotic arm to sort recycling.
Children were given a brief that their robotic arm should:
– Be strong and sturdy with a solid base.
– Have a moving part (mechanism)
– Move in at least one direction
– Separate at least one type of recycling (paper, plastic, glass or metal)
– Must fit on the lid of their box.
Children showed great communication and team work skills to create their robotic arms. The winners of the competition were Spencer M and Zac! The boys have created a video which will be sent to the judges at STEM works.
The children had a fantastic time and we look forward to finding out who the winners of the overall competition are at the end of the summer term!
