Let’s have a look at some different types of playground equipment. As you look, think about

these questions...

What is it made from?

What is it used for?

What is it called?

How do you use it?

These are swings. The main frame is made from

metal. The chains holding the seat to the frame are also metal. The seats are made from rubber.

These are tyre swings. The frame for these swings is made from wood.

The chains are metal and the seats are made

from old car tyres.

This is a rocking horse. It has a spring which makes the horse rock backwards and forwards when you sit on it. The spring is made from metal. The

horse is made from wood and is painted, and the handles are made from

plastic.

This is a slide. The frame is made from wood with metal railings. There are

two ways you could climb up to the top of the slide. Can you spot them?

This is a seesaw. Seesaws have a plank which balances on a

central support. When one end goes up, the other goes down. This

makes the people sitting on each end go up and down too! This seesaw has metal handles and

plastic seats.

This is a roundabout. This whole roundabout is

made from painted metal. Roundabouts spin around a central point.

This one has yellow handles so you can hold on and not fall off while

it is spinning!

Over the next few lessons, we will be exploring different types of playground to help us design, make and evaluate our own

models of playground equipment. To do this, we will need to look

really closely at some examples...
