1/2K's Car Race

We had a fun time making cars with Anatole from Craftpower because we're learning about toys. We used hammers, saws, work benches, nails and wood. We tracedcut out our car shapes and then we cut out our drivers. There were lots of different drivers, we got to choose which one we used. When we were done we tested our cars outside and then we got to decorate them. What a day!







It was really fun using the saw to cut into the wood. Mine was noisy. Leila

I liked working next to Allister at my bench. Romy

I enjoyed sawing out the characters for the car, I chose a fish and gave it green and blue eyes. Sean

I liked sawing the car out. I chose a tricky design but I did it! I chose a koala driver. Dean

We used a saw and we had to hammer in some nails. My favourite bit was sawing. Mitch

I was brave when I was cutting because I was a bit scared that I would mess it up. Aimee






When I got stuck, someone helped me and then I got it out. It was very hard to put the nail in too. Jordy

I like making cars, even though my hands started hurting. Selvi

I like making a cute koala car with Anatole. Alisha

I enjoyed making a car. It was pretty hard but I did not give up. Aidan

I was a bit scared when we started cutting but it ended up a bit easier than I thought it was going to be. Amelia

I wish we could make other things and I think it was a really good thing to learn. Lola

My car worked out but it sort of broke a little bit but we fixed it. Dan

We made cars with wood and I liked the noise when the saw went "crk crk crk" through the wood. Goldie






My car broke but I'm going to take it home to fix. My character is a ninja dog! Evie

Sawing the wood was sort of hard but I got the hang of it in the end. Audrey

I enjoyed making the cars out of wood and I wish I could do it again with him. Maybe I will be able to do it again when I'm a grade two. Allister
