PAT projects for grade 11 in technical sciences!

Grade 11A

The grade 11 learners are currently busy with the project part of their PATs.  

For this, they have to build a car from cheap, readily available material that uses only elastic potential energy to propel the car. The idea is based on what is commonly known as a mousetrap car, but learners have the freedom to design their own. Apart from designing and building the car, a small scientific investigation must also be done by using the car. Best wishes to our future engineers!

Tegniese wetenskap PAT: graad 11A

Die eerste voorbeelde van die projek - gemaak van goedkoop, herwinbare en maklik verkrygbare materiaal. Hierdie prototipes maak van elastiese potensiële energie gebruik vir aandrywing.

Hier sit die trotse graad 11A's by hulle handewerk.

Hierdie "karre" is ook aan 'n tydtoets onderwerp. Tekkie Tonic sal uitvind wie die vinnigste "kar" kon bou...

Met hierdie wetenskapeksperiment neem elke leerder sy lesings om grafieke te trek en vrae te beantwoord ten opsigte van krag, spoed, massa ens.

Op die foto verskyn Paul Gerber, Schalk Pelser, CJ Horak, Renier de Lange en Gert van Zyl.
