Year 5 Homework for the Bank Holiday Weekend!
In DT this term we will be making kites. Your homework for this weekend is to research kites and to come up with initial ideas about how to design and make the kites in school.
We realise that some children may not have access to information that will enable them to complete all of the homework, but we hope that they will be able to do as much of the homework as possible.
PLEASE RESEARCH KITES USING THE INTERNET, BOOKS, ASKING FRIENDS OR FAMILY WHO FLY KITES ETC… AND ATTEMPT TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS. YOU CAN SET OUT YOUR FINDINGS HOWEVER YOU WISH.
1. What are kites made of? (please list as many different materials as you can).
2. How do kites work? (stay up in the air). You can include a diagram here if it helps you to explain.
3. Draw the shape of as many different kites as possible, or cut out pictures of different shaped kites that you can find.
4. Perhaps you might want to go kite flying over the weekend and bring us a few photographs?
5. Feel free to bring in any other information about kites too.
Enjoy this mini-project and we will look forward to seeing your work on Tuesday.
