Cinderella

This resource provides an introductory video with a STEM Ambassador reading the story of Cinderella and a follow on activity for children to carry out. In this activity, children act as engineers in order to help Cinderella with a problem. She needs a device that will time 20 seconds. Children work in teams to think about possible solutions and then design them.  They then explain their design to each other, saying why they decided on them. They also test and evaluate their designs and modify them as required.

This activity has been provided by STEMFirst, with the video story provided by BAE systems.
