MGSO4 MAKES

Three films commissioned by Epsom and Ewell Arts Festival are inspired by the theme of Journeys.  Children can use the films as a tutorial at their own pace.

 

In these films I make a rocket with working parachute and construct a version of the International Space Station! 

 

"Creative Engineering in Action" these tutorials inspire creativity and invention.

Activites can be simplified or made more elaborate, it's up to you!
