As part of the project, the children have been learning how mechanisms can be used to create movement. They have explored how split pins can join different parts together, allowing their monsters to move once completed. So far, the children have carefully constructed the bodies of their monsters and have designed creative heads to bring their characters to life. There have been lots of fantastic ideas. The children have been developing their designing, cutting and construction skills, while also learning how moving parts work in everyday products. Well done, Year 2, for your creativity and hard work in designing and making your fantastic linkage monsters. It was wonderful to see them come to life with their moving features. --- ### Year 2 DT – Linkage Monsters [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9017.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9017.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9018.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9018.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9019.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9019.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9021.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9021.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9022.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9022.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9025.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9025.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9026.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9026.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9027.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9027.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9024.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/year-2-dt-linkage-monsters/IMG_9024.JPG) [ Reception and the Naughty Bus](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-06-25-reception-and-the-naughty-bus) [Celebrating the Children of Burtonwood Community Primary School - July 2026 ](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-07-01-celebrating-the-children-of-burtonwood-community-primary-school-july-2026) ### Our School - [Welcome from our Headteacher](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/welcome-from-our-headteacher) - [About our School](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/about-our-school) - [Our News](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news) - [Values, Vision and Mission Statement](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/values-vision-missionstatement) - [Open Events](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/open-events) - [Virtual Tour](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/virtual-tour) - [Our Staff](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/staff) - [Admissions](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Governance](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/governors) - [School Prospectus](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-prospectus) - [Policies and Reports](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [School Performance Data](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-performance-data) - [Ofsted and Academic Results](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/Ofsted-and-Academic-Results) - [The Equality Act](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/student-support/the-equality-act) - [Work for Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/work-for-us1) - [Omega MAT](https://omegamat.co.uk/) - [Contact Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/contact) ![Burtonwood Community Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/logo/Omega_Part_of_Logo_White_Mono.png) **Burtonwood Community Primary School** Green Lane Burtonwood Warrington WA5 4AQ Tel: 01925 224072 Email: ## Follow Us - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090550038773&locale=en_GB) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/omega-multi-academy-trust) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/burtonwoodcps) ## Translation © Copyright 2020–2026 Burtonwood Community Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/) Update cookies preferences
