To link in with our metals topic, we have been writing explanation texts for iRobots. We began by watching an award winning short film about a robot dog and discussed things such as its movements, how we understood its emotions and its relationship with its owner. We then wrote an explanation text of how an iRobot dog works. Included in this was a diagram with which we combined canine and technical language to label the parts. The children produced some fantastic writing and are currently working on an independent piece of writing about an iRobot animal of their choice. In Design and technology, the children have also used recycled objects to create their robot animal.
