Year 3 Photo Frames
After investigating the stability of different materials and shapes, a 'build your own bridge' challenge to support a given weight, Year 3 made and decorated their own Hugo Cabret inspired photo frames. All frames stand up securely and the ingenious inclusion of a bullclip means that it fits its design purpose of ensuring different photos can be displayed when required. Take a look at the finished frames:-
