The Lever and the Pivot!

Today we learned about the lever and pivot. We learnt that a pivot moves the object and the lever tells the pivot what to do. We had to colour and cut out the dogs.

The aim was that the dog would wag his tail and move his tongue. In this case the lever is the tail and the tongue, and the pivot is the pin holding it together. When our dogs were all complete, whenever we moved the dog's tail the tongue moved with it!
