Understanding functions of freestanding structures

Lesson outcome

In this lesson, we will build upon prior knowledge of structures. Pupils will develop an idea of a structure they could make. To do this, they will consider function, user and purpose. Please note this lesson will require some additional equipment, beyond a pen, pencil or paper, to fully participate. Please see the equipment slide near the start of the lesson video and make sure your child is adequately supervised if equipment is required.
