KS2 design and technology. Brunel's big achievements. 2
Description
Join Isambard Kingdom Brunel as he takes the train from Paddington to Bristol blowing his own trumpet at some of his biggest engineering achievements en route! Feast your eyes on the wonders of Paddington Station, the graceful design of Maidenhead Bridge, and the spectacular Clifton Suspension Bridge. Share Brunel's view from the front of the train as he travels along the London-to-Bristol railway route he engineered and find out how to load up his iron-hulled ship, the SS Great Britain. Designed as a stand alone resource, to support D&T in the classroom, the programme can also be used in conjunction with "Brunel's Britain", a set of on-line interactive resources available free via the Teachers' TV website.
