The Breakfast Machine

We found a way to help our Year 6's with some last minute SAT revision.



The Breakfast Machine by Georgina

Are you desperate to squeeze in some last minute revision? Do you want to start your day with a nutritious breakfast? Do you want to combine the two with a perfect time saving solution? "Yes, yes and yes!" I hear you cry! Luckily I’m here to help you with a few simple instructions that will help with your difficult SATs.

You will need
Ramps
Pool balls
String
Tape
Toasters
Hammers
Book
Cup
Bread
Jam jar
Pulley
Hammers
Bicycle wheel

How The Machine Works
  1. Firstly, the page (which is attached to a string) is turned
  2. The string pulls the cover off the jam jar releasing the heavy pool ball (It is not though a ball for a pool!)
  3. The pool ball quickly descends as it goes down the ramp.
  4. Moments later, the pencils release hammers that strike the toasters causing toast to pop up unexpectedly. The toast allows the ball to continue on it's journey.
  5. Suddenly, the ball falls into a pulley before travelling down more ramps.
  6. In a flash, the ball falls into a cup which is placed on a bicycle wheel.
  7. Finally, the weight of the ball causes the wheel to turn bringing a piece of toast swinging into your mouth.

Hope this helps with your SATs!

  1. Love the instructions, though it seems like a lot of effort to get a slice of toast!

  2. Love the imagination on this invention - leaving your hands free to write/revise
