M.O.T.A.T Trip

LI: to learn about technology and transport.
M.O.T.A.T stands for Museum Of Transport And Technology, we went to M.O.T.A.T to explore technology and transport that were made before the year 2000. We also got to do two activities, for the activities we had to use co-operation and team work to make things. We started off by the staff introducing them selves, we then got split up into groups to explore M.O.T.A.T, my group got to see a village, cars, technology and we also got to see fighter planes that we were not supposed to see. After the exploration we then moved onto the activities, for the first activity we tried to make a working car powered by a propeller, the materials that we had were cardboard, straws, propellers, motors, batteries and wheels. We had to get in a pair a start trying to make a working car. For the second activity, we had to power an LED light (Light Emitting Diode) using cogs, one motor, axles and foundation pieces. We had to connect the wires from the LED light to a motor, on the side of he motor, there was a cog, to light up the LED light we had to turn the cog, but that was way to hard, so we had to use cogs to wind the side cog to turn on the light. I had fun exploring and doing the activities at M.O.T.A.T.
