Castles are mainly associated with thick walls topped with battlements. You can also build such a wall using TANGRAM blocks. Instruction: Prepare the tangram pieces and arrange them to match the picture below.

How does a castle drawbridge work? Let us observe examples and experiment with simple machines such as pulleys and ropes and take basic measurements of the size and weight of the bridge. Through group work we can construct a drawbridge for the castle we have already built. How to Make a Working Drawbridge - STEM Challenge How To Make A Cardboard Castle

Build a beautiful castle together

Tinkercat is a tool for 3D design, electronics, and programming in one intuitive interface – and it's all free. When you create an account, you can choose from three types: teacher, student, and personal. Interesting things happen with the teacher and student accounts. Teachers can freely create lesson topics and assignments, and then invite their students to complete them. We encourage everyone interested to add more blocks – maybe we can build a beautiful castle together? Each school 3 blocks! Click the link!

Let's research and create artwork inspired by the lives of people who lived in castles(e.g. drawing knights, queens, or peasants).
